As Axis, if Im playing historically, Ill hit France with everything, then transfer all military units east, and use the Italians as garrison troops in France. If you mass produce armies, Russia isnt too difficult.

If as Axis youre daring, then after beating France put everything into aircraft production and tech, and attempt a sealion. If the UK surrenders before Russia enters the war, then the Axis automatically wins.
