Right, so this game will take place in the Napoleonic wars, and before, during muskets, cannons, and the early grenades. All that good stuff.
Now the general time period will be 1700-1815, ending with the end of the Napoleonic wars, you will play a lowly soldier (or an officer, but it's first come first serve) you will get promotions if you do good, and be upgraded as the battles fight on, as the troops are outfitted with better equipment.
a few suggestions for class and origin
A Prussian (German) Skirmisher An Ottoman Janissary A Russian Line infantryman (Line infantry were basically the grunts, the backbone of the army) a French Grenadier (Grenadiers are also limited to two players) An Austrian Dragoon or A British Artilleryman
if you want a suggestion for what to play, ask me
to the sheet!

you're in India, with about 5000 indian troops as allies dressed in traditional turbans they idly chat with each other as they march, a slight contrast to the more western men, near silent as they slowly march to a drum beat, with a flutist's tune to accompany. you are marching towards a defending French force, the Aritllery is behind you, while the cavalry upon their high ego are ahead ready to take any volley, although there are none to be had. By the time you reach the objective of the day, you find the french forces already prepared for a fight, mostly set up along a long but gently sloped hill, it will be a slog but it will be worth it to take out those french dogs
you're artillery commander yells "Load up yer' cannons! as you reach the peak of another hill, and the infantry continue on
the mortars drop their small guns in place and the howitzers load their shrapnel shot

You march ahead in the almost featureless snowy landscape, with a few barren trees here and there, marching towards a a tiny swedish army of 22,00, dwarfed by your mighty 12000 strong army
you keep walking nearly immune to the cold as the drummer pounds a steady marching pace beat, and the flutist accompanies with the jaunty tune, the Standard bearer waves the flag too and fro, you come upon the blue uniforms of the swedes, dead ahead far out of musket range
the officer yells "forward, double pace!"
you start on a small jog forward, by the time you are nearing musket range, the enemy cannons fire off in succession, ripping through ranks of men and tossing them away like dolls, with an accompaniment of screams of pain.

should probably load first...
well you load it, then the officer yells "Aim!" everyone raises their muskets, but the swedes fire before you receive the order, bullets whiz by and rip apart the front lines, men fall clutching their stomachs, arms or legs screaming, others just crumple and bleed turning the snow a dark red
"Fire at will!" screams the commander, you light the match and cup your ears, the cannon fires off into the blue petticoats of the french, it... misses though, smashing the ground in front and bouncing over them
