I think with these new wildling cards it might be time to bring my old wildling deck out of retirement.

She really is low risk in a Wildling deck. Already is 1 STR and you can get UO with Stealth a lot of the time. With 3 of her in play, you can potentially get 3 combined power for their ability.

This card hasn't gotten much love, but I quite like it. It's not game changing, but I like interesting, narrow use cards. In a Wildling deck, you're basically choosing between her and Gilly for a slot....maybe Free Man also. I'd run 2x Free Man and 1x Washerwoman just for setup. My Wildling decks also don't hurt for intrigue so getting an unopposed off shouldn't be too tough.

Can I attack with only Abel's Washerwoman if she has 0 STR? And then what if defending player declares no defenders?

Yes you can. If they don't defend you get a power for you house, but when it is time for challenge resolution no one wins because no one has any str and you have to count at least one str in order to win the challenge.

After they don't declare any defenders, play Endless Endurance (LoW) on her to give her +2. Then you'll get 1 from her ability, 1 for UO and a card out of their hand (depending on your claim value naturally)
