On the topic of Howe, i always thought that Loghain allowed him to gain so much power because he later planned to marry Anora to one of Howe´s sons, effectively making all those lands belong to the crown again, so no threat to Ferelden´s kings. This isn´t anywhere ingame, aside the little remark of Howe when he died ("I deserved more"), so maybe he was trying to get his family linked to the throne through Loghain. Howe was a power hungry bastard after all.
About Ostagar, it isn´t very clear who really made the battle plan. The game suggests that Loghain came up with it, because he is the general, but then you have Cailan making his demands that are unnegotiable, and Loghain bitching about it (ex. Cailan must fight alongside the wardens, in the front lines too.). So who´s to say how the plan would have looked had the king sat in Denerim instead? I think the plan used was a compromise between Cailan´s "glorious charge" and Loghain´s "sneaky tactical ambush", neither Loghain nor Cailan appeared too happy about it, probably because both had to make concessions from their ideal plan.
Retour en haut
). I disagree about him caring only about himself, if you let him live and talk to him you see that he was doing everything that he believed was best for Ferelden. But you are entitled to believe what you want.
