Historical Roleplay?

Okay, so I made an RP before that did not spark much interest. So, instead of making that same err, I thought I would inquire first.

I don't know what I will call it yet, but I do know what I want for a setting. I wish to put it in the Revolutionary War age, but I want the mood to be kind of romantic. Kind of. Not looking for a full blown out Nicolas Sparks movie. As I have learned (through a lot of research), is that despite the characters being majority male, even females had some great roles during this period. I am wanting to make this as realistic as possible, which means no Vampires, Gnomes, etc.

I will be looking for:
American Soldiers
British Soldiers
French Soldiers
Militia

....and of course....

Females (believe it or not, there are quite a few women during this time that dressed as men to fight! Heck, some even went into battle with their husbands. You never know what you can create).

I want to ignite some interest before I put any real work into it. I will, of course, supply players (especially the ladies) with the roles of that era, as well as information pertinent to the environment (attire, weaponry, etc).

I may also require a GM to help out with the storyline when I figure out exactly what it is that I want. Some kind of tragic romance would be nice, but I don't want it to feel like another RP geared toward pairing people up.

If it is even in anyone's interests, perhaps I can allow the ability to play the actual figures of the Revolutionary War (Gen. Washington, LT. Gen. Rochambeau, Maj. Gen. Lord Cornwallis, etc.)

Anyway, I am open to ideas and the whole nine yards.

P.S. I'll be looking for literate typists that can do at least three or more paragraphs at a time!
