We Are Legion

We Are Legion is a side quest in Fallout: New Vegas. This quest is one of a pair of mutually exclusive quests to resolve the battle between NCR forces stationed in Camp Forlorn Hope and Legion forces stationed in Nelson. Completing this quest prevents the completion of Restoring Hope, and thus prevents the NCR from reclaiming Nelson.

If you succeed, and then go to Red Rock Canyon, Papa Khan will greet you for your success, suggesting he has very good networks of informants, and that his hate of the NCR is intact. More importantly, he will name you his official heir. He will propose you to rule the Great Khans after his death, an exceptional offer you can accept or decline. It is symbolic, as it has no immediate effect in the game.

Walkthrough

 * Kill 4 named NCR "officers" at Camp Forlorn Hope: (Major Polatli, Quartermaster Mayes, Tech Sergeant Reyes, Dr. Richards)
 * Report back to Dead Sea.
 * Reward: Liberator

Note: Because several of these officers are involved in the quest Restoring Hope, finishing this quest will cause Restoring Hope to fail. Other quests that begin in or involve Camp Forlorn Hope can be completed, as long as they're done before killing the officers for We Are Legion.

Bugs

 * Standing in the south-western most lookout 'tower', the space between the sandbags and the roof is an invisible wall, allowing the player to pop out through the entrance, open fire, then retreat behind said invisible wall. The NCR will perceive you are hiding in a room and will all run to the location and equip melee weapons, making the quest very easy.
 * Beginning this quest after having gone through every other dialogue option with Dead Sea may result in immediate quest failure, and endless Legion infamy gained.

Behind the scenes

 * The title is a clever play on words. On one level, it simply means that you are working with the Legion; that is, for Caesar. However, it also evokes the New Testament, Mark 5:9, in which Jesus is conducting an exorcism, adding demonic overtones: "Then Jesus asked it [the possessing spirit], "What is your name?" "My name is Legion," it replied, "for we are many."
