I have to assume even though I killed their leader, the game simply replenishes them and thus the battle goes on as planned.
I kille off House, hoping that I would gain control of NV (if that's possible, I haven't found it yet) and I'm just wandering around sniping off legionares, trying to get head shots from as far away as possible. But that's getting out and I'm now heading into the sewer system, but I pretty much have covered all that as well.
