Uses for the extra 200 gold/month your post-Apocalyptic populace is contributing:
1) Hurl it against the invincible hide of the Future Pantokrator.
2) Bullet purchase.
2) Gun rental.

I have to disagree with your priorities here Cleveland. SC's are vulnerable to numerous spells and counters: Frozen Heart, Soul Slay, Stellar Casscades, anti-thug with AN weapon, etc. Growth and high gem income (enabled by a rainbow pretender) give a boomer the tools to handle an SC rusher quite handily.

Basically, armies proper > SCs > armies w/o support.

By midgame, using mages to spam elemental damage spells does more damage per turn than anything an SC can come up with.
