Lewis gun higher accuracy than Bren?

Dont think the number of men effects spotting its the size rating that counts. When using them against unpinned infantry do not use all the shots every one increases your chance of being spotted.

I'd assumed the number of men played a role.

I think there's a greater chance of hitting a larger team though. Isn't this why snipers, even once spotted, are such a pain to KO?

Regardless, my main concern is for realism where possible; so a two man team just makes more sense.

Wrong. Two service the weapon and one is on tea duty! They're Brits after all!

I don't think so, I remember reading here somewhere that one of the sniper classes special attributes was the ability to convert a killing shot into extra surpression.

I might have it wrong, but I think that's one of the reasons they are so hard to kill.

Regarding earlier comments about Lewis gun 3 man team seems sensible for it, 2 to share carrying one with the ammo.
On the tea front Hoplitis was nearly right but from watching the gas board at work it would be 1 on the gun & 2 for tea duty
