These are good questions. I aske myselve and look to my figures box. There are sets up from 3 to 5 figures most. So around 5 figures is the way to go.

Always the same nation in one set I think.
US, GB, Australian, New zeland, LRDG, Russian, German, French early war,Polland early war (because of First to fight models). Infantery, Tankmen, Pilots ...

Ideas of pose:
Two man who carry one foot woundet man in between who is sitting on a stick or fire arm.
One foot is in Bandage the other get no sohe.
Three single figure.

One who help himselve to wrap his sock around the woundet arm by bite in one end of the sock and tension it with his good hand on the other end. There his first aid kit of his uniform should be is now in shreds. One foot get no shoe. Maybee a tank driver. Standing or sitting figure.
Single figure.

One wearing his woundet (at the heat) mate with both arms under his shoulder during the other waring this mate at the feet.
Three single figure.

One is sitting on the ground lift his (right or left) arm to the kneeling mate who is starting to bandage his woundet arm. The uniform hang down in shreds. The wound is visible.
There is no bandage modelled because the customer can put a pice of paper as bandage how he like it.
The same situation there the woudet is sitting of a box and his mate is standing.
Two figures.

For the russian (in civil cloth too) mass attacks two to three fallen soldier lay over each over.
Please each soldier a single pice. Not one pice all.
five figures.

A doctor who put a syringe in a arm of a soldier. The uniform is rolled back at this arm.
Two figures.

These are no rules just ideas of size of sets and pose.

I can create this soldiers (there is a lot of picture) and the zvesda romanian have the same helmet.
But I think this army will not be a best seller... They only fight during one week...
