Red
Comsat 1 2 and 3
These remote facilities handle uplinks and external communications. Internal communication is based on a wi-fi nodes that are connected via hard-line, with no external connection. It is probable that they are responsible for the electronic "stealth" bubble over the island as well.
Quarantined Base
Like most facilities, the Quarantined Base, properly known as Primary Bioresearch Facility, is subterranean. The base has been closed since the 1980's. No one knows why, but the installation was sealed, only the Terror has access to it. The access point is guarded by two fully staffed towers with mounted weaponry and rigorously cleared fields of fire.
Science Base 1
The main facility, it is subterranean, constructed around a central shaft. Including living quarters and labratories, the facility could probably house several hundred scientists, engineers, technicians, and support staff, but the facility had about one hundred people there when you stayed on the island.
Science Base 2
Smaller than the main lab, this facility is designed to house two dozen staff. This is the Terror's personal labs, and only persons of the highest clearance work there. Transfer there is a permanent position, so to speak.
Yellow
Garrison 1 and 2
Each facility is a subterranean barracks, training hall, and armoury. Each could hold a modern company of infantry (about one-hundred twenty), but in practice they have about thirty of Terror's soldiers each.
The Villa
Half subterranean complex, half mountainside resort, this was your main quarters during your stay. Roomy, with a certain 1960's curves and bubble style that seems to belong in a Bond movie, it is an almost empty "five star hotel" designed to allow six or seven teams in relative isolation from each other to have access to anything one needs, complete with shops, theatres, gymnasiums, hologram and mechanical system training rooms, much of it designed around metahumans.
There were a couple common areas where the teams could mingle, the big pool, the par three gold course, but it was rare to have more than two teams on site at any one time.
Green
The Transit Stations
Movement around the islands is handled by subterranean "bullet trains" moving on two lines, Green and Yellow. The trains can move down either line.
The Yellow Line stops at central island destinations. The Green Line serves the outer islands and the undersea geothermal plant.
Green Line Stations come complete with several electric off-road vehicles (quads and jeeps). The tube platforms resemble subway stations with a number of parked train-cars. Each car is lowered into the "trough" and moves on a magnetic rail system around the course, lifting up to its destination station. Transit is always clockwise.
If you were to purposefully transit past every station and return to your destination it would take less than ten minutes -- the trains are moving a little more than half the speed of sound.
