but in the meantime, this looks like it'll do. thanks.

Have you tried the Age of Wonders series? Specifically Age of Wonders II: Shadow Magic It comes pretty damn close to Master of Magic, but with better graphics, a wonderful AI, tons of user created mods on the website, random map generation, and easily created scenarios. Worth a look.

Isn't AOW a RTS game?

Age of Wonders is a turn based strategy, and while the original one wasn't all that special, the second Version, Age of Wonders II, along with it's succesor/add-on, AoW II:Shadow magic is most definitely not stale. The mod community for it is at least as good as SE:4, if not better (and I speak as one of the members and mod creators of both communities)

And like I said, Shadow Magic has a robust random scenario generator, better than the one I would say that was with MoM, along with a strong built in campaign.

To each his own, of course, and I can't really judge how you would like a game, but I suggest reading some of the top notch reviews it has gotten. I leave it to you to search for them, both because I don't believe in handing anything on a silver platter to anyone, and because any reviews I recommend might be suspect.
