User blog comment:Cfp3157/The Horn of Helm Hammerhand Sounds Again: Loghain Mac Tir vs. King Théoden/@comment-2149911-20141201024407

In the battle between the bravest of once fallen heroes, I'd give it to Loghain Mac Tir and his valiant men.

When it comes to the individual battle amongst the two, Loghain has the much better defense option with his heavy armor and Kite shield. To me these are one of the major advantage he has against Rohan since they can reduce, if not, deflect all of the strikes coming from Rohan's Herugrim. Another advantage Logmair has against Rohan is his Mace. With his mace, Loghain can deal some major internal damage from the blunt damage AND increase his stamina with each swing he pulls.

However, the biggest advantage Logmair has up his sleeve is his abilities as a Champion. His War Cry will be able to cause Rohan and his men to charge into battle uninstigated and with no plan just by hearing the sheer streak, or even worse cause them all to drop onto their knees. His sheer presence and voice will motivate his men with such vigor that they will fight to the very last breath with no regrets. Overall, Loghain gets this with a superior defense and offense, and the abilities his Champion title grants him to turn the tide of the battle.
