How many figures do you use on your heavy weapons bases (HMG, Mortars, RCL) for AK47?

Two or Three or whatever looks good?

I'm on holiday and have left my rules at home, which doesn't help when I've taken a load of figures with me to base up!

Cheers

What ever looks good. Basicly I use two figures with mortars getting three figures.

Whatever looks best really. I tend to use three figures fro basic infantry, 2 if they have RPG's and three and weapon for MG, mortar or RCL. Mainly this is so I can see what they are armed with quickly my eyes being not as good as in days of yore.

One heavy weapon and 2-3 crew on a 30mm round base.

I've started to use 2 figures per base with a little more work on the bases – I like the overall scenic look

3 is pretty standard.
