Strategy Article
There's no strategy article for Followers.
It's a pretty great Prize, though. It gives a swing of 2 VP by giving out a Curse and giving you and Estate, forces the opponent to discard, and gives you +2 Cards so you get some benefit too. It's often the first Prize to go, unless there is another curser on the board.
Synergies/Combos
- Villages, so that the Followers doesn't draw your Tournaments dead.

Secret History
And in place of Followers I had a VP-Action card. It didn't work out because, you know, you buy VP cards later in the game, for the points they're worth. I just couldn't make a VP prize exciting enough without making it too good. It couldn't be something you built your deck around, because you might not get it and at most got one. Something like Harem or Nobles just wasn't going to look pretty next to the other Prizes, because part of what you "paid for" was the 2 VP. Anyway Followers, who doesn't like Followers.
