use ur own units as ur own assasin's target practice?

This is the feature I miss the most, especially when playing as the Italians and Byzantines. (Imagine a "smiley sad face" because amongst all the numerous smiley on this forum I couldn't find one. I must be getting dementia. Maybe if I looked a third time......)

Nope I can't find one either.

the best way I've found to train up assassins is to leave a small rebel stack sitting somewhere convenient and then use it for target practice - even if it's just one unit, that's 100+ assassinations your guys can carry out, maxing them out pretty quickly - you can get eight assassins around one rebel stack if it's situated nicely
