The senior officer of the Vervun Primary had the power to enforce martial law and dethrone the civil ruler of the Hive as leader, under section 45jk of the Act of Entitlement. The Vervun Primary had a rigid command structure, which did not place emphasis on personal initiative. This proved to be a source of early casualties during the Zoican attack of 789.M41<sup>1-p.22-28</sup>, but the Primary eventually proved able to adapt to the varying threats it came to face. Individual Vervun Primary officers would go on to show considerable individual talents, particularly those that became members of the [[Scratch Company|Scratch Companies]]
The Vervun Primary was decimated during the Defence of Vervunhive, and effectively ceased to exist at the end of the campaign. When the city was razed, several of the survivors joined one of the various Imperial Guard regiments that had fought in the campaign, under the Act of Consolation.
