EX-ranked is the closest I can get, because the first EX is basically Ionian Hetairoi that's uncontrollable and way more Vikingy, while the second is: "NOTHING CAN STOP ME NOW!" And also has the effect of plowing through Avalon and similar absolute stuff.
Do tell me how to improve them, and how they are bad, please.
They didn't seem all that bad to me. Very simple and kind of one-note for sure, but that's more due to the character's personality then anything.
Also, if you have a critique you should really word it more specifically then just "what in the fuck", which says a fat load of nothing about what needs to be improved. No offense.
“Greetings, Master, we are-“
“Ahahahahah! So the practitioner of magecraft in front of us is our Master, huh? Well then: As the Holy Grail decreed, I, P-“
“Oh hello Master, please ignore the walking stage play, for I am-”
“Gah! Aramis, why must you ruin it? I was merely introducing ourselves to our Master-”
“…And blurting our identities for our potential enemies to hear? Why, one of them probably has-“
(Ahem!)
“…Sorry.”
“Sorry. Heheh.”
“…Forgive me for their antics, allow me to repeat myself: we three are the Servant Saber, and we will serve you until our services are unneeded.”

I have to say, that Three Musketeers sheet is very well-done. I'd contemplated doing one for them myself in the past, but could never think of a fitting NP for them or how best to represent the differences in their fighting styles. Their personalities and how they'd bounce off each other makes for some pretty entertaining interactions, and I can only imagine the antics they'd get up to in a Grail War. If I had one critique I'd say that, because of how famous the Three Musketeers are as a group (much more so then Bonny & Read, say), I think they merit a higher rank in Combination. Wouldn't necessarily even have to change the actual description either, just raise the rank.
Personally, I'd also argue that their endurance rank with combination should be C, or at least not E. E-ranked physical parameters are for cripples or Casters.
I feel like Combination should be higher considering its Three Heroic Spirits instead of two.
Atalanta was a famous hunter, a devotee of Artemis, one of the Argonauts, and was raised by bears.

Under other Masters, Medusa's Endurance reaches the dizzying and stellar heights of D.
Also none of them are crippled???
1) None of this has anything to do with your statement of cripple or Caster
2) Medusa was under Shinji, so what?
3) Atalanta is sorta famous for a lot of things that are physical
4) Modern doesn't mean "can't hack it physically"
5) Wraith doesn't mean "can't hack it physically"
6) Medb out-physicals non-Fergus AoG men
Localizationing stuff
To be honest, I think Medb probably should've had at least a bit higher physical stats since she was a warrior queen and all...
There's more to being a warrior than being able to hit things good.
Anyways in the legends she's more of a commander than a brawling fighter.

It's just a matter of what archetype/schtick the character fits.
They're just super fragile dudes but compensate it through other means.
Kojiro in his particular battlefield is nearly unbeatable but if you tap him, he is dead; Atalanta doesn't need to worry about Endurance because she is faster than most servants; Billy is almost garanteed the First Strike everytime and so on.

Porthos should have a higher endurance though IMO.
Isn't Leatherface from Texas Chainsaw Massacre? Surely he should go in the other thread, right?
Even if you go the "he was real and the movies were just documentaries" version of events, this ought not to be the place for it, right?

Nope, this thread still allows for this, as he does meet all the requirements for becoming a servant. I checked. And he's not modern fiction ether.
The movie came out in 1974.
He belongs in the modern fiction thread.

You "checked" with what?
I'm agreeing with 87.
