Eureka!

You get this quest, if you've decided to help NCR.

When you accept the task, you'll be moved to General Oliver's Compound #1. One of the workers will come, reporting that a group of legionaries broke into the power plant. Your task now is to get to the Legate's camp and kill Lanius. Just after you leave the General's office, you'll meet Mike Lawson. The mechanic will make a suggestion to flush the Legion invaders through the generator's turbines. Head to the Hoover Dam Power Plant 03, where you can find the console #2. [Science 65] use the terminal to engage the turbines and flush the Legion troops out.

Unfortunately, the system will clog so you have to manually decrease the water pressure. Go down to the Hoover Dam Power Plant 04 and exit to the dam exterior (M19B:3). Search for valve #1 and release it. Return to the Power Plant 3 and then to upper levels until you reach the exit #2.

Proceed ahead, heading to the Hoover Dam Checkpoint (M19:5).

NOTICE: If you have an alliance with Boomers, their plane will bombard the enemy #1.

NOTICE: If you have broken an alliance between Great Khans and the Legion, a small group of them arrives to help you.

You can find a terminal #2 inside the checkpoint. [Science 100] if you have a detonator you can overload generators and then blow them up.

Right after you exit the checkpoint, you'll meet a NCR Ranger Veteran Commander #1, who awaits your orders:

• [Speech 85] push ahead
• ask for some snipers' cover
• join them and attack Legion troops together
• refuse his assistance

NOTICE: If you have an alliance with Enclave, they will help you now.

Keep running, fighting with Centurions until you'll reach the [Legate's Camp] (M19:2). Head to the Legate's tent (M20:1) #1. There are three ways to deal with him:

• fight him (and his guards);
• [Speech 100], [Barter 100] convince the Legate to surrender;
• [Speech 80] get him to call his guards off and fight him one on one.

The fight will be very tough in first case, while you'll have to fight also some Veteran legionaries who help the Legate. The main gate is closed, so you have very limited room to maneuver. And remember that the Legate prefers fighting with melee weapons so use this as your advantage and try to shoot his legs to slow him down.

If you decided to talk to him, your skills should be maxed - [Speech 100], [Barter 100]. There are few possible conversation's ending but every leads to the Legate's surrender.

Talk to the General #2.

Congratulations, you've finished the game.

Depending on your actions during the game, there will be a variety credits at the end, outlining the current situation in Vegas.
