cards in supply: Cellar, Conspirator, Duke, Governor, Haggler, Minion, Oracle, Pirate Ship, Stables, and Tunnel

No fast trashing, no +Buy, no +2 Actions, but still lots of possibilities. The key ones I think are

• Minion/Conspirator with Cellar
• Tunnel with Minion, Cellar, maybe Oracle, probably a Governor too
• Stables/Conspirator with Cellar
• Standard Governor with Haggler, Cellar support
• Some sort of Governor(cards)/Conspirator engine which uses a single Minion as a discard attack

Various hybrids are probably possible too.

In the game I played, I went for the first strategy, and my opponent went for the second. I won that one, but what I'm wondering is: Could a Governor strategy use the Silver-passing as a pseudo-attack to mess up the Minion/Conspirator chain?

Governor/minion seems devastating here for 1p.

If there's Tunnel but no +buy, I would be tempted to go for a drawing engine with Stables and Cellar as the main pieces and a couple of Governors purely to remodel Copper -> Cellar, Silver -> Stables/Governor (especially if opponent uses Governor for Gold), and Gold -> Province. A couple of Conspirators could be good as non-terminal cash but I'd suspect that most of the economy comes from Golds and the points from Gold -> Province remodels.

Minion has interesting interactions and can be played at the end of a turn for discard after you've finished using your Governors. This sort of combo does seem a little weak without +buy though and you absolutely need to leverage multi-Province turns to win in this kingdom.
