What I have fun doing with assassins is Indie provinces. Go in the province, kill off the leaders until he can't find anymore. Then attack the province the next turn. The indie army is leaderless and routes.

This does work, but its very time-intensive. You might take 3 turns to kill all the leaders of an indy province and then a 4th to take it. By that time you could probably have recruited an army that could cap the province and then continue on to cap more at 1/turn.
