How could they do that when they haven't invested much in their naval power and their U-Boats were ultimately deemed "not enough".Telconi wrote:-As you mentioned, Japan and Germany actually cooperate on mutual goals, rather than simply perusing their own goals.

I agree on that. If only they did that in Ukraine and the Baltic, the situation would be a lot easier for them. But then we wouldn't be talking about Nazis.Thermodolia wrote:First off Hitler never should have been in charge.

But Japan needed oil to sustain the war, and by 1941 the US weren't supplying it to them. One option would be Southern Asia, which what they did. But could they have attacked as far as Malaya without triggering the US?

The US where pretty damn isolationist up to the point that they got attacked. Hell FDR had a hard time passing his lend-lease act though Congress. If it didn't directly effect the USA nothing would have happened.

Now, for the purposes of this AU, if they wanted to win:
* Nazi Germany shouldn't have made the V1 and V2 missiles, but instead mass-produced fighters and bombers.
* Hitler should have made there one clear heirarchy, instead of making several competing heirarchies to induce infighting.
* Japan shouldn't have attacked Pearl Harbour. That way, the USA wouldn't have declared war on Japan.
* Japan should have used their elite pilots to train new pilots to make a huge number of good pilots.
* Japan shouldn't have treated their pilots and planes as disposable.
* Japan should developed and made a well-armoured, well-armed, fast heavy fighter (like the P-47) to use as their main fighter, with the Zero given a more minor role. They should also have developed more powerful engines.
* Nazi Germany should have agreed on two or three boring-but-practical tank designs and mass-produced them.
* Nazi Germany shouldn't have attacked Russia.

Excuse me if I'm wrong, but weren't the US supporting Chinese Nationalists by then? That sounds pretty un-isolationist to me.

The Axis could have achieved naval superiority in the channel via air power, and Japanese help.
With some Japanese support, and all of the Eastern Front troops commited to the invasion, they could have forced a thrust over the channel despite the Royal Navy.

That would require the Japanese occupying the Hawaiian Islands and even then, California is about 2,500 miles away. They'd have to maintain a floating airbase to conduct a sustained bombing campaign against the West Coast. Terror raids might have been one thing but serious damage would, I think be out of the question.
