That's probably why I thought it had been in more than one set...
I've seen the all-blue variant from the collection of some GameLUG
member in an Evil Stevie's game and just assumed it was from a
different set.  I think I've seen variations without the starter dots
as well.  I can't tell if those are unprinted grey plastic showing
through, or dots of white.

As I mentioned already, this was from the very first run of the
set--within a couple weeks of it coming out in the fall of '89.
Maybe they went to blue baseplates later.

As far as I am aware, there is only one set using this baseplate. There is a
Paradisa set with a somewhat similar plate. I have this baseplate in both
grey and blue, all have the white dots, though on some the dots have faded
somewhat.
