My guess (and wish ) for the map would be North Africa from Tobruk to El Alamein, with a campaign covering the rise and fall of Rommel's Afrika Korps. Sure, you would need a 500x250km map, but the workload on the map-maker should be lower than for the BoB map. It might even be possible to have an additional 200x200 map covering Malta and part of Sicily as well, which could easily extended with more ocean area if the intention was to allow for the Anti-shipping raids carried out by the RAF from Malta.

An Africa Korps campaign would explain why so many tank and vehicle models have been included in CoD even though they have little role in the BoB
I agree that a desert map with much few objects could be made larger. Hopefully this will be the case.
