Loyal gives a loud "Yeehaw!" as he and the other Boomers pilot the Bomber. This was their dream, and they were finally in it! He'd need to thank Tamia for her help after all this is done, as well as Mr House for providing the opportunity...
"How're those bombs lookin'!?" the old man calls to the back of the aircraft, wanting to know how many more passes they had before they had to return.
"We got enough for two more passes Loyal! We got enough fuel for it!?"
Loyal gives a beaming smile and nods, "Hell yeah we do!"
On the ground, Lanius can only watch as the bombs drop onto his helpless forces. The Legionaries try to shoot back at it in response, but the bullets do little to nothing, even if they manage to actually hit it.
Shaking his head, he prepares for another charge. He knew that the NCR wouldn't dare bomb the Dam, it was already fragile enough from the two hundred years of little to no maintenance. If it fell, the rest of the Mojave would as well.
A grenade drops nearby him but Lanius just kicks it back towards the NCR. It explodes just as it passes the barricade they were using as cover, killing and disorienting a good portion of them.
Lanius gives a roar and charges once it explodes, headed straight for the first tower. A couple bullets skitter off of his armour, but he ignores it and beheads two NCR troopers who hastily try to retreat, knowing full well what awaited them if they got into melee range with the Legate.
A trooper tries to use the bayonet on the end of his rifle to fend Lanius off, but he just grabs the blade with his gauntleted hand and breaks it, causing the man to squeak in fear and piss himself.
"Futue te ipsum!" Lanius screams as he slashes the man with his blade, causing him to stumble against the concrete balustrade. He looks up just in time to see Lanius giving a great kick to his chest, launching him completely off of the Dam.
"AHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhh!"
Lanius turns his furious glare towards the other troopers as the man's scream echoes behind him. They cower in fear but continue to fight regardless, knowing they had nowhere to run. He enters the tower and tries to break the hatch that led further inside the Dam, but notices that it'd completely sealed... It'd been welded, as well as barricaded from the other side.
*Bang!*
Lanius stumbles forward as a hard impact hits him in the back, along with a few smaller ones at the back of his helmet. He turns with a fierce growl and spots the couple NCR troopers further up the tower, looking down at him with shocked looks.
A couple minutes later after butchering the troopers and the Ranger sniper that'd been posted there, Lanius looks down and spots a few NCR soldiers wearing that accursed armour approaching the tower. He looks Eastwards and notices his army trying to fight through the surviving NCR troopers, but their progress was too slow to make it before he'd have to fight these specialised warriors.
*Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!*
He scowls as he spots that infernal aircraft flying over his forces again... He can only look away as the bombs decimate more of his men, turning his attention towards the enemies at hand.
The NCR power armour team crashes through the closed tower door with weapons ready. One wielding a Minigun while a few others had assault rifles.
Lanus leaps from the stairs though and drops right onto of the man wielding the Minigun, stabbing his blade into the crook of his neck where the armour was thinner. "Die cum armis huius sceleris reus!" he bellows as the others swiftly react and start pelting him with bullets.
However, once they noticed the bullets doing nothing, they tossed them away and attempt to grab Lanius and use their slightly enhanced strength against the man... Unfortunately, Lanius was far stronger than he had any right to be.
"RRRRAAAAGGGHH!!" the Legate roars as he twists an armoured troopers neck with a single hand, smacking another on the top of their helmeted head with the flat of his blade at the same time.
*CraaaCK!*
Their neck breaks with ease, leaving only two armoured troopers left, one charges Lanius while the other throws themselves at the Minigun, grabbing and revving it up while their teammate keeps Lanius busy.
"Dodge this you BASTARD!" the trooper exclaims as he begins firing, only to realise too late that Lanius was using his teammate as a human shield.
*DAGAGAGAGAGAGAG!*
"AAARRRGGGHHHHhhh!"
Lanius throws the bullet-ridden armoured trooper onto his friend which forces the Minigun to stop, afterwards jamming his blade straight into the only survivor's neck. Once he was sure that was the end of them, he beheads one of the corpses and carries it outside, throwing it at the NCR soldiers who all pale in fear.
"LAM PASSIM DIMITTUNT!!! WE WILL PAINT THE DAM LEGION RED WITH YOUR BLOOD!" he roars, turning to his army that'd finally caught up to his position, "MEN! CHAAAAARRRRGGGGEEE!" he shouts as he charges the enemy while using the headless armoured trooper's corpse as a shield. Quickly a number of .50 cal rounds lodge themselves into the body through the makeshift power armour.
By the time Lanius actually reaches the enemy, the corpse he was carrying had lost its lower extremities, leaving him with just a mangled torso. He throws it and continues his bloody rampage, grinning viciously as the blood lust takes over.
Colonel Moore was watching all of them on the other side of the Dam with some binoculars, as well as listening to the screams of help over the radio... The channels they were using to communicate were almost rendered useless due to people misusing them to beg for reinforcements and help... There wasn't anything they could do however, they needed to hold position and wear down as much of the Legion army as possible... Hopefully, the Legion would route before all the NCR troopers were expended.

Afton looks through the Vertibird door at the adjacent vehicle flying next to him. Miles was currently piloting the newly created 'Dirt-Wing' with his girlfriend Melissa, they were carrying Afton, Veronica, and Christine to their drop off point on the Dam while the rest of the army was making their way on foot.
The Vertibird across from them was piloted by the Enclave Remnants, Orion in particular. To be honest, Afton was very surprised to see people wearing 'their' emblem seeking to assist him in attacking the NCR. Needless to say, he'd easily accepted(After checking they weren't spies of anything of the sort).
Of course, Orion's piloting was a bit rusty, partly due to time, and partly due to the fact that piloting was given to Daisy, who of course was now resting in peace. There were three other people in their Vertibird waiting for the action to start.
One who went by the name 'Cannibal Johnson', who, as it turns out wasn't actually a cannibal. Another who Tamia apparently knew named Dr Henry. It was quite fortunate Tamia and him by association had helped out with Jacobstown. Afton got the feeling the man wouldn't be as willing to fight with them if he had no prior history.
Last but certainly not least was Arcade Gannon, that doctor Tamia had picked up and was now running Novac as the mayor... Once the man had spotted the three Remnants in their Vertibird and wearing Power armour, he'd jumped at the chance to retrieve his father's armour to join them.
And yes... Afton was almost drooling over the armour each wore... Arcade's in particular due to its rather flashy modifications, that made it far more effective when used in conjunction with energy weapons. But, he'd ask about analysing it after the battle was over.
There had been another member of the Remnants aside from Daisy of course, but the group hadn't found hide nor hair of the man. Considering the fact they'd managed to find Cannibal Johnson, a man who'd apparently been squatting in a cave waiting to die, Afton thought that it was likely their missing friend was dead.
To be honest, Afton wasn't really sure what to think of these elite, if frail, Enclave soldiers being dropped in his lap. Either someone really wanted the NCR to lose, or his [Protagonist] Perk was finally kicking in.
Soon enough Afton spots the Dam as the fly over a large hill. Thick plumes of black smoke were rising from various points, and he could see the tidal wave of red clashing with the green defenders... It seemed like the NCR wouldn't last much longer if left to their own devices... A route was imminent judging by how pale and scared the Troopers looked.
Afton had made sure to come to the battle late, just to make sure both forces had whittled themselves down sufficiently. He fully intended to force both factions off of the Dam in the end, so letting the two sides tire themselves out would help tremendously in that effort.
A shadow in the sky did draw the group's attention, however, that Bomber Tamia had assisted the Boomers in recovering had apparently been repaired enough for flight... Surprising, but not tremendously so... After all, he had a couple of his own Bombers being constructed, all of which were far more technologically advanced than the scrap-heap that was dropping bombs on the Legion right now.
"Miles, bring us to the floor, it seems like our other friends got here before us." Afton commands, gesturing down at the huge group of Securitrons slowly rolling towards the Dam. He could see Colonel Moore running to intercept them, but luckily no weapons had been discharged yet. "Melissa, man the turret. Do some flyby's to thin the Legion's numbers if it seems like they're about to overrun the place." he states as he hops out of the Vertibird... Which just so happened to still be a few hundred feet over the ground.
*CRAAASH!*
The ground rumbled as the armoured individual hit the ground, causing a couple NCR troopers to stumble or fall over. Colonel Moore held her ground with some assistance from a single salvaged Power armour wearing trooper that'd been assigned to her.
Obviously, she knew who this was, and she knew there'd be no point in trying to antagonize him... Especially since what seemed to be a heavily armed army of Securitrons were headed their way. Either she recruited Afton to the NCR's side, or the Dam would find a new owner...
Afton and the others hop out of their Vertibirds, Orion and Dr Henry staying in their own Vertibird to provide air support alongside Miles and Melissa.
Ignores Colonel Moore for now and instead strides towards the three people leading the Securitrons. "I remember you." he growls in a low tone while taking his helmet off, remembering all the Novac guards these fucking mercenaries had killed during their attack.
Drake spits on the floor in response, walking up to Afton and poking a finger at his breastplate. "And I remember you! You owe me a gun you fuckin' shit!"
Afton scowls, "I owe you a gun huh? Sure, how would you like it? Jammed down your throat, or shoved up your ass?"
"Ha! You think you're tough just because you're wearing that armour? Take it off and I'll show you how a real man fights... I bet that title 'Fastest shot in the Mojave' isn't just for your shooting. Look, there's two thing's you're good at! Disappointing in a fight, and disappointing in be-Guhk!" he's cut off as Afton grabs his throat and lifts him off of the ground with a single arm. He thrashes around for a couple seconds, attempting to dislodge himself, but obviously has no such success.
Madeleine and Hunter draw their weapons in response to the sudden aggression shown by Afton, Drake glances behind him at the Securitrons, hoping they'd help out as well... Only to see none try to intervene... Instead, one of them rolls forwards with its screen flashing to Mr House's face... Seems like the boss had something to say...
