How big do you guys make your islands? I'm looking at using 32x32 baseplates
for a game I'll be running for the UK student wargaming nationals.

  Ideally you use actual island baseplates.  Granted, this may
  be difficult or impossible nowadays--but I remember we had
  islands of all sizes, some 16x16, some 16x32, some 32x32.  It
  is, as always, governed by what you want to be on the island.
  BTW, 8x32 tan baseplates from 6444 make excellent sandbars and
  reefs!

  I'm hoping to put together a fairly large island this time
  around, built of bricks on four 32x32 blue baseplates, but we
  shall see...

    I am working on building ape island, i am using 2 32x32 blue baseplates.
    I am useing the giant ape face from the advetures set with treasure in
    the mouth. I'm need about 10 more chews to use as ape man, i have 2 and I
    am hoping to have about a dozen ape man in total.

  BTW:  Ought we go looking for a big blue plastic tarpaulin
  (that sort of recyclable-bag plastic consistency?) to lay
  down if there's no carpet on the floor?  I'd contribute a
  few bucks to such a buy.  Of course, if we have blue, grey,
  or green carpet in situ, we're OK already...but is there any
  carpet in the venue under discussion?

  best
