It is my understanding that grub cannot boot from RAID.
You can boot from raid1 by the expedient of booting from one of the
halves.
A common approach is to make a small raid1 which contains /boot and
boot from that.  Then use the rest of your devices for raid10 or raid5
or whatever.

Am I trying to do something that's basically impossible?

I believe so.
