You might want to look at the general format for Dominator Assault Sets. You have way too many AoE attacks in there. They are generally limited to 1 PBAoE and one ranged cone. Earth Assault has a TAoE, but it is short range and on a long recharge. This set might be able to swap the PBAoE with a TAoE and be light on melee (such as Fire Assault is), but you aren't going to have 6 targeted area of effect damage attacks.
I love the idea, but that whole balance thing is an issue.
I would also like to see Gatling gun Assault.
Captain Den'Rath 53* Merk/Traps MM, Rivona 50Energy Blast/Time Cor,Victoria Von Heilwig 53* Dual Pistols/Traps Cor, Crab Spider Webguard 53* SOA, Accela 53* Bot/FF MM,Valkyrie's Executor 53* Broadsword/Shield Def Scrap. On FREEDOM! @Knight Of Bronze

You really, really need to look over the other Control/Assault sets to see what kind of abilities they use in order to put ones of a similar style in similar places.
Also, you trying to steal my Munitions Control/Assault idea?

Outside that I was mostly putting this up out of boredom and the simple fact I want a non-elemental Dominator set. Plus wielding that awesomely huge Grenade Launcher the SWAT have would make me squee like a schoolgirl.
I'm aware balance would be an issue but as I see it sure there would be a TON of AoE but the overall Dmg would honestly be lacking compared to any set with a few good Melee powers. Sure you could mow through a mob of minions like no tomorrow but a Boss or AV would be a serious issue. Especially for endurance bars. I can almost hear them weeping at just th thought of how much these AoE's would cost.

Given that Dominators are explicitly limited in their AoE potential so as not to step into Blaster territory, game design would trump reality. |

Your best bet would be to do something unique, like give the set one Cone, one Targeted AoE, and a third Targeted AoE with a 5' radius and a 3 target cap-- taking a page from Piercing Rounds here. Even that would be pushing the envelope because you are replacing a 10 target PBAoE with a 16 target TAoE. Dominator Assault sets are intentionally limited in their AoE potential, which why the APPs and PPPs provide TAoEs to fill this gap.
I had a random thought about Doms and the lack of "natural" powersets for them but rather than just take AR or DP and make a controll-y version why not make use of the Grenade Launcher weapon type we see a few enemies use and employ an all Grenade powerset pair. It would be new enough to be its own set but recognizable enough and use existent animations to be easily implemented
