Suppose the Axis powers sue for peacd after they see their situation is ultimately hopeless, though not at the point where it'says obvious. Perhaps in the summer of 1944, after German defeats at Stalingrad, Kursk, North Africa, and Italy, with a successfull beachhead in France, and Japanese defeats at Guadalcanal, Midway, Saipan, and Kohima, as well as the persistent failure to knock China out of the war. Basically at the point where the Allies aren't exactlyin a position to dictate terms, but the writing is on the wall.

How likely is it that they sue for peace, and how likely is it that the Allies agree to talk? And what would the terms be?
