Also, @ RR
It is clear that the axis could never have conquered the US, but I don't think that would have been necessary. If Britain and the Soviet Union were defeated, the US would be equally unable to conquer continental Nazi Europe as they would have been to conquer the US.
Not without proposing the war would continue well into the atomic age, of course, with carrier borne atomic warfare. (nasty thought).
Anyway I suspect that if Nazi Germany had attained a victory in Europe, this would probabley have occurred before heavy US involvement, and the US would have had to accept the reality and signed a treaty.
you know what... there are some interesting but highly complicated board games that cover this era, such as A World at War. It might be quite cool to do a forum game here sometime.
