I think the Allied player should be able to fight on with the US after England surrenders. Hitler would have declared war on the US after Pearl Harbor especially with England knocked out.
I'm not so sure whether the US liberates England first however. George Marshall was a strong proponent of invading France and attacking Germany as soon as possible. Without Churchill's influence that view may have prevailed. I can postulate an invasion in the Bay of Biscay area supported by carriers.

In all reality, the loss of England in the 1940 war in Europe would likely have played a minor roll in the total war picture because IMHO all English significant engineering, scientific and production abilities would have been evacuated to the US and British territories abroad. The majority of England’s navy would be transporting it all with the remainder of the fleet to be scuttled in port. Any future European invasion by the allies is strictly speculation but IMHO England’s liberation would have been a priority and Churchill was just a skilled enough diplomat to ensure it as such. The first opportunity to invade England by the US would have been the 1941 invasion of Russia, and IMHO it couldn’t fail, even more so if North Africa was used as a jump off point. That being said however, I must confess, the Axis deserve a minor victory simply because the Allied player allowed England to fall in the first place.
