Playing as Isengard, after I built a tavern and could build assassins, every last mission that I get from the council is for assassinations. I also get missions from heirs who want me to kill their dad the king, "who is naught but a simpering fool". Those assassinations are very difficult affairs with like 5% chance of success (although my generals are killed all the time by AI assassins), so after a while I don't even bother anymore. It's too much work to build the assassins, babysit them towards their target and then see them fail time after time.
I would much prefer get those juicy assignments for taking enemy cities or getting treaties with neighbors. They are feasable and productive.
I think I'll never build a tavern again, just so I can avoid those useless "missions".
