 == Introduction and Summary ==
-''The Roads They Walk'' is a dynamic and modular modding guide for Fallout: New Vegas. The guide style is heavily based on other STEP guides such as Skyrim Revisited and Fear and Loathing. Written for beginners and experts alike, it aims to be the easiest to follow and most thorough modding guide for New Vegas that you'll be able to find anywhere. While this guide is heavily based on the styles of Skyrim Revisited and Fear and Loathing, it also incorporates a modular and ''dynamic'' flow to it. What this means is that unlike the previously mentioned guides, it offers more than one set of mods to install. Much like the STEP guide it will incorporate a base install of mods and then allows the user to "pick their path" so to speak.
