Apparently these were the original plans for Fate 2006, written by Nasu

>The plot outlined in Fate/unpublished material describes first an anime series similar to the Fate route but featuring Tachie and her Master as the seventh Servant instead of Assassin, and then a movie that would have an original route highlighting Tachie's backstory.

>Ernest is a man from America in his early 30s. The center of attention at the Mage’s Association, his family is a well-known, prestigious family in London. Though a part of the Mage’s Association, he can be considered a semi-freelancer who doesn’t put much emphasis on the rules of the Association and conducts what research he likes.

>Ernest and Shielder would have made their first appearance when Shirou Emiya, Rin Tohsaka, and Saber first visited the Fuyuki church. They were already present at the church by the time Shirou, Rin, and Saber arrived.

>During the early part of the story Ernest would be seen as a model mage by Shirou, who laments his own shortcomings. But soon Shirou would learn he was wrong about the kind of person Ernest is.

>Ernest would eventually drop out of the war, leaving Shielder as a Masterless Servant wandering Fuyuki.

>Medea is a lot more active "it feels like Fate but with the Caster parts of UBW put in there."

>at some point Caster hits Rin with a curse that grows like a tumor over several days as Caster's magic circuits invade Rin's body

>Zouken died in HGW4 so Sakura and Shinji don't know much about the HGW and Sakura is a normal person with circuits. And Shinji got Rider's catalyst, her dress, from Kotomine. It doesn't talk about how he summoned her or anything like that.

>Sakura is Caster's doll and she tries to use her as the core of the Grail. Like in the DEEN anime.

>Archer dies to Berserker like in Fate, but then he pulls a UBW and comes back to save Rin from Caster, breaking through her barrier with Triple Crane Wings and killing her before disappearing.
