Well, even in a world where the USSR surrenders, Germany's still going to be beaten to the bomb by the allies, and unless the UK itself is taken all of Germany is in range of nuclear strikes.

How exactly?
1. With the Soviet Union beaten, the German industry could be transferred outside the reach of the Allied bombers. Further more production would be shifted towards air defence.
2. You are aware that WW2 atomic bombs weren't exactly powerful nor plenty, are you? The 2 nukes in Japan caused way less devastation than a few months of conventional bombing raids. You can compare the stats. Japan also didn't surrender due to the nukes, but rather the combination of all factors with the Soviet war entry being the primary reason.
3. How exactly would Germany have been beaten? Would Hitler have surrendered to a strat bombing campaign???

. In observer mode without any players, Germany should in my opinion always ultimately fail and be crushed, given that it was organised in a way underneath Hitler that made it bound to collapse and get a lot of internal dissaray.
Even with the victory in hand for Germany, there would had been incredible resistance, mutiny and coups sooner or later, because of it being a nazi country.


So your genius idea to have in a video game is somehow modelling Germany to lose each and every game 100% of the times, ok and wheres the fun in that? What's the point of the game then if you play as allies?

''Incredible resistance and mutiny'' I doubt Germany ever faced massive mutinies besides 44-45 and besides Valkyrie there wasn't any other serious coup attempted. Also how are all of these linked to the fact that its a Nazi country?
I fail to see how mutiny will be more common, however I agree regarding coups.
