What I do to get high valour Assassins is to have a province produce emissaries on a continuous production line and then have assassins take out the emissaries one by one (Ems are really easy to kill) until they are 3 stars and then move them to where you want them. In theory, you can have 10 3* assassins in 30 years - very useful for taking out high valour generals!
BTW - Is it really true that only a maximum of 3 mishops in a province will affect conversion? If so, I'll be moving some bishops around. I usualy go for 5 - a nice round number. If it's only 3 then I can get even more of those Byzantine scum to join our friendly Catholic church :)
