    Swert's suggestion has veracity and compelling prospects. The biggest limitation however is not mod support on Iron Front: Liberation 1944, as it's perfectly capable of running Day Z virtually box stock and working with existing ArmA II Day Z servers -- but the fact that Day Z uses ArmA II art assets that would require permission from BI to run on another title in this manner. A cross-title mod has a lot to offer all parties concerned: BI, Deep Silver, Day Z's Developer(s), and Fans of all three games -- so it wouldn't be out of the question for BI to want to see how far Day Z's success might go and grant cross-title exclusive use of some assets for exclusive use on a cross-title mod with Iron Front. This could also set an important precedent in licensure of BI's engine that may interest prospective Developer/Publishers. Day Z's Developer(s) may also be interested in expanding their mod to use art assets unencumbered by licensure to 'future proof' Day Z for the eventuality of keeping the door opento commercial prospects. The bottom line, while it may be a long shot, it's certainly a something all three parties should seriously explore as it has prospects of being a win/win/win for all concerned, achieving something not only unique but beneficial to all at virtually no cost to anyone...
