Primary: Loghain Mac Tir. Normally in a competition between mace and sword, I'd go sword because speed and stabbing/slashing>strength and blunt force. But in this case, mace takes it. The fact that the mace is a light weapon mean Loghain will be able to use it just as easily and swiftly as Theoden will use his blade, and the greater strength and superior combat skill of its wielder means Loghain will be tough to overcome up-close.

Secondary: Even. Loghain's shield is big enough to keep him safe from most attacks, and he has been show using it in sync with his blade to disorient enemies in the past. While the extra protection is a big advantage, I feel as though Theoden's javelins will prove a dangerous attack that could keep Loghain at bay long enough for the Rohirrim to ready a killing blow. Ultimately, it's range vs defense, and that's a tough choice.
