'''Strata''' is a custom [[Territorial Control]] map made by YM. The map takes place at a paleontological dig, with each final base being a fossil museum showcasing different kinds of prehistoric fossils. Electric generators can be found in various spots throughout the dig sites, powered by gasoline.
