Updated the OP to add the sections "Vaulting" and "Doors" to the "anything else I should know?" area, this is important information. In addition, I updated the item descriptions for Grenades and Medkits to reflect that their use ends your turn.

I'm not going to sign up, because this seems pretty complicated. Unless I can be Dr. Vahlen and just yell at players every time they blow something up.
TAC: Commander, we've got that tactical overlay you requested.
HQ: What the hell am I looking at, Tactical?
TAC: Well as you can see, we've overlaid the imagery with a coordinate grid for ease of description. We've also analyzed locations we think are untenable for our troops to pass through, and marked these locations in cyan. Of course, we've marked the tables and counter in this way, though the troops are certainly capable of vaulting over them.
HQ: So any ground that's not covered in a cyan rectangle...
TAC: ...is a legitimate tactical location.
If I don't have your character when I get ready to close sign-ups tonight, I'll just roll your stats randomly, and @Sir Fabulous will choose your names.
PROTIP: You don't want @Sir Fabulous choosing your name.
I've incorporated some suggestions from @MrBlarney into the tactical map, it should be less ambiguous and more aesthetically pleasing now. Let me know if anything is unclear.
For the sake of my sanity, not this time. If there's a sequel, I'd like to include different elevation levels, but it was just too complex for a first outing.
could you maybe make the grid lines a bit darker? They're easy to see on the wood floor, not so much everywhere else.
I'll...see what I can do. I didn't make the grid lines, so I can't just grab-and-darken. If nothing else, I'll overlay some transparent lines every, say, 3 or 4 tiles as guides.
I think that's everything. A couple reminders/notes:
1. Remember to include Sir Fabulous in any PMs or proboards.
2. Unless you were specifically told otherwise, you have an Assault Rifle. It deals 2-3 damage on a successful hit.
3. Day 0 can either end Monday night if everybody's cool with that, or we can extend it to Tuesday night, since I realize there's a lot of decisions to be made. Let me know what you think.

We should probably try to make Monday but I'm not averse to the extension.
So, uh, how many squads are there? Looks like probably 3 or 4, with at least one mafia in each?
E: There's more than one scenario, but the two most likely are probably 3 squads of 7 with leftovers that are mafia or 7 / 7 / 6 / 6 with some mafia in each squad.

Wait, is Day 0 happening now? I know we're talking amongst our squad, but can we discuss game things outside of that yet?

Since I didn't get all the PMs out until well after "vote close" time, and since deployment is kindof A Big Deal, let's do it this way: If all deployments have been sent to me by 10:30 Eastern, we'll go ahead and start Day 1 tonight. If not, we'll do it tomorrow night.
As for conversions, CD.

I will make my own role and be the guy who quick saves after every turn to un-do any fuckups. And I will do so silently. Over there.

If you haven't sent in your character, you are now at the mercy of @Sir Fabulous.
edit: I thought sign ups were going on longer than they are apparently, sorry!

Day 0 has started, the thread is open, as is the ability to PM each other.
Are there conversions?

And I would guess there -will- be conversions, or at least mind control. Goddamn sectoids.
I would recommend that nobody speak too openly on how low your Will score is.
