SEA-XXX-NBO stop NBO-XXX-MNL (a stopover in ADD would be good) stop MNL-XXX-Southern Europe.

Will this require 3 awards? NA-SAfrica (60k); SAfrica-Asia (60k); Asia-Europe (62.5k)

Thanks

I did a bit of playing around, but can't find any clever ability to change this into a roundtrip as it involves 4 regions.

One suggestion, maybe turn this into an Economy Round-the-World award for 180K miles. It's a tiny bit cheaper and probably offers you more flexibility for stopovers and the ability to eventually get back to SEA if that's your goal. I can't give you much info on the rules of this though.
