Shelters gets a bit annoying with this. You'd really better make sure you get rid of that Hovel, as that's also +3pts for you now! If there are no trashers, then at least everyone else is also taking -6 for the Necropolis and Overgrown Estate.
I'd like to think that having only 1 Plat. and Colony is bad, but the engine and sheer VP respectively should be able to make for for the -6 VP hit.
Worse for me was with $7 and 2 buys, I got a Duchy and Estate. 4pts + -6pts = -2pts
I would've been better off just buying 2 Estates!

It's games without +Buy where Wolf Den becomes significantly more tricky. Tracking your deck is really important!
You also need to watch out for remodelers, if you have two golds and remodel one into the last province, you aren't getting as many points as you might have thought!
In my first ever game with Wolf Den, I made sure to trash all of my Estates, then on the last turn stupidly picked up an Estate with my Province, causing me to lose. Oops!
