How to convert SP scenarios to MP for four players?

[GottaLove88s]

I've said it before but it warrants saying again. Awesome game, Adherbal, Bebro, Erik & Aristos team!

Have just begun messing around with the only four-player MP scenario I can find, Clash of the Titans. It's a bit simplistic, just a surface fleet engagement, so no subs or aircraft... No islands either... But it gives an exciting taste of what's possible with this game engine.

How hard would it be to convert some of your SP scenarios into four-player MP?

As a crazy idea, it would be awesome to mod one of your SP maps to play with:
- a USN player (for American forces)
- teamed with a Brit player (for GB, Australia, NZ, Dutch forces)
versus
- a Jap general (for IJA land forces, land based bombers, transports)
- teamed with a Jap admiral (for IJN fleet, fleet air arm, support & supply ships)

Anyone know how to do this?

The problem with the approach you proposed is not so much a technical issue. Main characteristic of MP scenarios is their balance factor so that every player/side has equal chances for victory under assumption all players have equal skill. Balancing scenario for multiplayer and balancing scenario for singleplayer are completely two different things. It is probably quite easier to do MP scenario from scratch (at least psychologically) than to try to "convert" one already made for singleplayer.
