Based on a discussion around the Soviets doing worse from late 1941 on, it would seem that there might be a situation by 1943 that the Soviets might really consider making a separate peace to save the Soviet regime from collapsing. If that were to happen due to a food crisis, so that by July 1943 Stalin has exited the war and won't be able to reenter for the foreseeable future, would the Wallies keep fighting to the bitter end or would they not want to pay the price of defeating the Axis on their own and eventually agree to an armistice? This question is specifically on what the Wallies would do if Stalin opted to exit the war, IOTL they expended a lot of effort to keep him happy and fighting, so it seems like they were quite concerned about having to go it alone; of course they consistently overestimated the Germans (not sure about the Japanese, I don't think they did), so perhaps they thought that winning the war would be tougher than it actually would be sans Stalin. If the Wallies would agree to an armistice what sort of terms would that be or would it be a North Korea or Calbear style ceasefire with the war still technically going?
