Okay... A few things wrong here:

1. Bethesda has never integrated or sold an actual mod as DLC, and most likely never will.
2. Even if Beth did want to make your mod a DLC (Which wouldn't happen, since it would have to be REAAALY good and no offense, but you're not going to jump into modding and make the most amazing mod ever. You just wont, nobody will), they would NEVER buy it from you. What the heck makes you think they would?
3. Just... no. Where did you get the idea of that in the first place? It's absurd...

- I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but basically the answer is a massive pulsating NO.

I believe that the licence you agreed to when you installed the Creation kit meant that Bethesda already owns your mod so they would never actually buy it. could be wrong

Not wanting to break your dreams kid, but you can't sell something that is not yours.

You have screenshots/videos too prove your mods worth?

Previous mods you've made?

How did you create the prone ability? How did you create and add the new animations that would require?

Also, compared to what other mods?

Anything you make in the Creation Kit is Bethesda's property. If you had an awesome idea that Bethesda really liked then they might partly utilise that idea in the next game (lots of the archery system in Skyrim is inspired by Oblivion mods), but you won't get anything for that. It's like Lego buying a model you made from their set because they think it's cool. It just won't happen.

Not happening - as pointed out, they already own the rights to everything you created in the CK. Also, it's not like there weren't any enormous mods for the previous TES games. Noone ever mentioned the possibility of them being bought.

I'd recommend waking up and accepting reality ;)

Nope. Absolute best case scenario if they think your mod really is that awesome they might hire you. But they'd never buy it from you, as other have stated they already own it. (To some extent, no we wont argue this here)

Also I suggest adopting some humbility so you come across a little better in the community...

Modders make mods to solve issues, change things that they dislike or add something they think is cool. But most importantly, we do it for fun. That's it.

If you're looking to create items for monetary gain, then you're in the wrong game and should probably go to Second Life.

Also, no offence, but credentials do help. You joined today and have no visible evidence of anything. We see plenty of awesome-super-amazing-shivering isles style mods that are "almost completed" and no proof is ever shown.

This is starting to sound a little over embellished here.

Bigger than Skyrim and Dragonborn?

Seriously, what's you previous mod experience and do you have any proof this mod exists? We've seen a lot of these 'AWESOME MOD' threads and we never see anything solid come out of them, the poster usually disappears.

In any case, if this was at all possible, everyone would be doing it.

It's not about how good 'you' think it is, it's about how good everybody else thinks.

Napoleonic Wars was popular, successful and good. None of which your mod can possibly be as you've not yet provided proof of existence.

Uhhhh, is this guy a bot or something?

You don't need to repeat your question each time you get an answer you don't like.

No, wont happen. Anyway this probably be locked now before it escalates.

You're not getting our point. Other companies may have done it, but Bethesda will not. The answer is a solid no doubt NO. Accept it.
