Question About Bonuses

[FiveThreeEight]

I have a question. Take a look at this game for a minute:

I left Blue both bonuses because I figured Red would break at least one. After all, Red has a bonus and I do not. However, Red didn't feel like he needed to break the bonus. Now, Blue is probably going to have both Africa and South America.

My question is this:

Do you think it is the responsibility of those with bonuses to break others with bonuses?

Also, why is Red leaving 29 armies in a place where they can't attack anyone?

1 he does what he wants, this is war, no responsibilities. 2 to defende his bonus, now noone can break it

You can't rely on other people to break bonuses even if they have got a bonus themselves. After all no one has a responsibility they can play the game the way they want.

And after all he can't be that bad, red ended up winning that game.

Yeah, there's absolutely no responsibility there. You're really taking a calculated risk when you try to predict what another player's going to do. If you're paying attention and you see that player's consistently trying to break the bonuses of a strong player, you might take a chance and assume they'll take care of that, but you obviously have no guarantees.
