In the 41st Millennium, the [[Castaferrum Pattern Dreadnought]] had become the most common.{{Fn|1a}} The design of the Contemptor shares systems with the near-mythical battle-automata of the [[Legio Cybernetica]], which may explain why so few Contemptors remain in service as of [[M41]].{{Fn|4a}}
Given the rarity of the Contemptor-pattern chassis, those few that still remain in service are revered as Relics relics amongst the [[Space Marine Chapter]]s blessed enough to count these ancient war machines amongst their arsenal. It is not uncommon for those Chapters to embellish their armoured sarcophagus with scripture, honour scrolls and additional details to commemorate the heroism and indomitable valour of the Ancient enshrined within.{{Fn|5}}
