Abundance to the Black Goat of the Woods You must immediately fight Shub-Niggurath! Since there is only one player in this combat, you need one success to remove a doom token. If you are out of monster trophies, you are devoured. If you defeat Shub-Niggurath, she retreats into the void and you may escape to Arkham immediately. The gate to Yuggoth is sealed behind you, and you may take it as a trophy. If Shub-Niggurath is the Ancient One in play, do not fill up her doom track before this combat; also, successes allow you to temporarily flip over the doom tokens to their elder sign sides instead of removing them. Once the battle is over, regardless of the outcome, flip all of the tokens on Shub-Niggurath's doom track back to their doom token side and continue play.		1
