The maps in Close Combat Modern tactics are huge! At least 4 times the size of maps in CC5.
The game should be designed to fill a typical wide screen monitor.
The screen resolution should be very high. A typical map should be no more than 2 screens wide and 2 screens high.
Instead of moving the mouse to the edge of the screen to move about, we should be able to grab the map with a "hand" symbol and drag the map up and down and back and forth.

that could mean multiple grabs and grabs... only one if you moved all the way to one extremity, grabbed, and dragged it all the way to the other extremity... that's if map size are kept to just 2 screens wide by 2 screens high of the typical monitor.
Moving the mouse to the edge of the screen is the standard control scheme in most games.
Also, if you want to jump to a certain location on the map...you can always click on the minimap...standard in most games also.
