Can anyone suggest some turn-based strategy games that are similar to MA?

What do you mean by similar?

Non-random combat?
Sci-fi setting?
pbem gameplay?

There is Laser Squad Nemesis, a reworking of an old game called Robosport. It is turn based (with orders excuted for both sides simultaneously) and focusses on sci-fi man-to-alien combat. It has some form of pbem function.

If you just want a turn based strategy game I recommend Age of Wonders Shadow Magic. It has a fantasy theme and lots of user made maps for both single player and multiplayer. This game has a very active pbem community. There is a demo available.

I was just reading about World at War, a new WWII turn based grand strategy game. It sounds good if you like games based on old table top war games. This one also has pbem gameplay.

Actually Laser Squad Nemesis is based on Laser Squad (duh...). It was released 3 years earlier than RoboSport (1988 vs. 1991). :)
