I don't use ec2 but I think having the 'connection: local' for your windows hosts is causing you problems, as it appears to be attempting to use the win_feature.py (documentation) instead of the win_feature.ps1 (actual windows module code). The connection type for windows hosts, at the moment anyway, has to be winrm, otherwise ansible will default to assuming it can use python modules.
I think you are almost there, but will need to make sure when you hit the hosts: windows (new play in your playbook) you have got the all the windows connection settings set up in your group_vars. I don't know what you would need to do to discover the correct username and password to connect (probably as Administrator user) to your new ec2 host, but those settings will need to be set up by that point. See this bit of the documentation for the windows-specific variables that you need to set up in your inventory / group_vars: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/intro_windows.html#inventory Once you have that figured out, I'd recommend using 'wait_for_connection' module to make sure that you can actually connect to your new instance, probably with a bit of a wait period to give the machine time to boot up and complete start up activities. wait_for_connection is pretty smart and assuming your inventory/group_vars are configured ok will test that you can make a winrm connection for windows hosts (and ssh or whatever other transport for non-windows hosts). Bear in mind too that Web-Server is a pretty big feature and I have seen it take nearly 5 minutes to install (on s2012r2) so given your t2.micro instance is 1 cpu it may take a while to complete.
