I started to try poison golems as SCs. They don't have magic IIRC but are fully equippable and that banefire aura hurts. Not bad at all as chaff killers. You need to keep those in attack as much as possible as they are unstealthy reapers, you don't want them to stale in your provinces for long killing pop.
I must admit they has a flava too, which helpz.
EDIT Rytek is fast
