Skip_14. •. No, there is no chance the Axis could challenge the Allies all at once and somehow achieve final victory. Especially with the combined effect of Commonwealth Empire, the Soviet Union and the United States. Even if the Wehrmacht did not invade Poland in 1939, Nazi Germany still would have lost.
With the entry of the United States in the war, there's no real scenario outside of the Axis powers beating the allies to atomic weapons that would lead to an Axis victory. It's possible the Allies might not have achieved an unconditional surrender of the Axis powers, but Axis defeat was guaranteed with the industrial capacity and manpower of ...
The industrial power of the Allies so far eclipsed the Axis it just wasn't even remotely a fair fight. The best you can manage would be to make it a tougher for the Allies.

The ship Churchill is on at the battle of Norway is sunk and he dies. Paratroopers reach Dunkirk before the British so the BEF surrenders. Britain agrees to an armistice an election is held Mosley wins and Britain joins the Axis powers. Able to purchase lots of trucks and other supplies from Britain.
The people of Germany realized far too late that incompetent people were in charge. You got promoted for “who agrees with Hitler the most” and the consequences were disaster. If the other countries had messed up enough for Germany to win, the cascading levels of incompetence would have permeated all of it. It would have looked a lot like ...
