Training exercise. @:-)
Seriously though, they are a recon unit, so if you wanted to keep the circle small while bringing overwhelming firepower (you hope) to the party the Royal Guards would be an ideal unit. You could dispatch them to a far corner of the desert as part of a clandestine op in a war zone. The tanks protect the PCs from the human dangers while the PCs take care of the supernatural.
