I like the idea for this, but green plates would look a bit strange for an

I agree, green is too ingrained in lego psychology as grass. Grey, dark grey,
tan, or blue (like aquazone sets) would look better. I would say grey or tan
personally, my blue is usually reserved for other displays at the cons I attend.
I fully support using a smaller baseplate; if people want to build larger
structures they can just use more than one. I also think it would be really
nice to establish a common primary color, like yellow. I think this is one area
where moonbase kinda fails because there is such a lack of continuity between
modules. Let people use whatever other colors they want, as long as yellow is
the most prominent color, say like 50% of the construction. Or at least require
that the connections between modules be a certain color scheme.
