Assassination n00b.

[Lazy_Perfectionist]

So, I'm very unfamiliar with assassination and all its variations.

I hear that an assassin cannot attack a target in a castle if friendly troops have control of the province. But you can attack in the castle if they haven't taken control?

I've used assassins against independents so far. Do any of the spells or units allow you to target specific commanders, or is it a luck of the draw sort of thing?

What happens if you have an assassin who's leading a few units. Can you assassinate then? Do they join in?

Etc. Etc. Do you have general assassination advice, questions of your own, any directions you want to hijack the thread.

Later I'll link in a couple assassin-y tee-shirts.
