This is belated but I didn’t have the time to really respond before. As others have noted, Booper lost this on G1. That is partly that I had great dice, but also that you had spread yourself thin enough that with the scramble, I could do real damage.
I’ll pretty much always scramble on 110 if it makes a modest improvement in the TUV exchange, and if the battleship isn’t there. There is some risk of the dice going south but in most cases, I will hit some German air and I’m willing to trade against them at a loss. Another reason to scramble is simply that you get the reputation for scrambling and your opponent thinks twice before going for both 110 and 111. So in a certain sense the odds of this are even better for the allies than ABH identified.
This being said I felt that despite that G1, I was in tough and that I was one mistake away from losing for much of the game. A couple of mistakes on my part contributed to that I think, but booper’s play was great. Very hard for me to get meaningfully into Europe.
As I mentioned in our chat, I think you had an earlier chance to take India, but lost it by focusing on China. This gave me a chance to move allied air (and ground units) to India in time to shut that possibility down. Had you gone for it, it might have changed the outcome.

In OOB if USA takes korea and then russia walks into korea, does this negate the mongolian rule?
-
@Jacob16 yeah. if its occupied by the US or another allied power, Russia can safely move in without triggering the mongolian rules.
-
I am considering something. If Allies can bid infantry only, and only1 unit per territory following standard bidding rules, what is a fair bid? 60, 80, 100? Maybe quantity becomes quality at some point?
-
@oysteilo 81 would allow for an extra infantry in every russian and china territory, would even it out quite a bit I think.
