Is unarmed assassin doable?

It's doable... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhBiNx749Zw
That video is friggin' hilarious (minus the quips about ray-ping the women)! I have bookmarked it for when I decide (and I *will* eventually do this) to make an unarmed fighter. He hits all the highlights about what you need to do to make a good puncher.

It's doable but the max damage you can do is probably 90 damage on a successful sneak attack. Hand to hand has a cap on damage unlike any of the other broken mechanics the game has to offer. I think the damage cap for hand to hand is about 45.

Did you read this thread? There is no cap. You can use the restoration glitch to boost the damage just fine. If you want the playstyle to feel somewhat legit, keep it around 200-300 damage for Master.

That video is pretty stupid. It's 2012 do people really still think it's funny/cool to swear every second word?

I do however really like the idea of a punchy character, could base him off Butch from Pulp Fiction, marry Lydia and ride up to her on General Tullius' horse and she'll be all "Who's Tullius" and you could be like "Tullius is dead, baby."

You'd have to try it yourself, unarmed has become pretty pointless now :/
When was it ever anything but pointless? This is the most viable unarmed has been in the entire elderscrolls series.
