kensai->thief gets the superb kensai bonuses plus with UAI none of the kensai restrictions - super strong

the downside is a lack of warrior HLAs like greater whirlwind but if you have a source of improved haste and you dual-wield that's not too much of a penalty imo

i've never done assassin->fighter but i have assassin cleric - all of your assumptions are correct and it will be a very powerful character (although aren't they all . . .) and much better at fighting that a single class assassin - a good chunk of that power though will come from your warrior HLAs and your assassin poison ability which is very strong - if you're going for such an ambitious dual (in terms of the XP required) i'd be tempted to go for the biggy and wait 'til your assassin gets UAI - you'll also have to manage XP carefully, solo or at least have a very small party, and it would help to install the tactics mod to increas the available XP

my $0.02 as they say
