Lanius is more reckless and violent.Īlright. Some endings are affected by Caesar living or dying. If you kill him, then legate Lanius will become the new Caesar per se. If you save him, then he will walk into the strip. You can either cause him to die from this sickness, or save his life. If you work for Caesar's Legion, Caesar will be noticably sick, and will eventually ask for your help. If you don't upgrade the army, then the securitrons are hard-pressed to defend the strip from anarchy, and will stand in the end. If you choose to go through with the upgrade, then all of the securitrons will be upgraded to the mark II OS, which makes them stronger. If you work for an independent new vegas, then Yes Man will tell you about a bunker, which you can use to upgrade the securitron army, but it's not required.
However, if you work for independent or Caesar's Legion, you will have a choice, which will change the outcome of this slide. Whoever you choose, it will be favorable to your side, and shouldn't have to worry much about it. I'll let you draw your own conclusions for each faction. This is determined by who you fight alongside: This slide tells which faction takes over new vegas.
