Talk:Blue Boar Tavern

Article Title and History
I think there some confusion in the name and history of the Blue Boar here.

I've gone down and checked in the older Ultima games - but as far as I can tell the Blue Boar has never been an Inn in Britannia. The tavern is just called "The Blue Board" in Ultima III where it is only a tavern, and doesn't exist in Ultima IV where the tavern in Britain is instead called the "Spirit Food".

But in all subsequent games where the Blue Boar appears (U5, U6, U7 and even UO), it is specifically called the "Blue Boar's Tavern" which means it has basically never been a inn in Britannia. Contrary to what the article claims the Blue Board is also solely a tavern in Ultima V, the only Inn in the Britannies being in the North Britanny

I feel there must have been some confusion with Serpent Isle's Blue Boar, which is called the "Blue Boar's Inn" and double as both a tarvern and an inn, so I'm inclined to rename and rewrite the article to be more accurate, and possible open a separate Blue Boar's Inn article for the Serpent Isle location.

On a side note there is also a Blue Boar Tavern in Ultima I, though I can't quite remember in which city it was. I think it wasn't even in the Lands of Lord British. --Sergorn 16:20, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Perhaps the error regarding U5 stems from the combined Wayfarer Inn/Tavern in Britain. In any case, yes, this should all definitely be addressed, with separate Blue Boar Tavern and Blue Boar Inn articles probably being the most prudent course. --Terilem 17:54, August 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sergorn, are you sure about the Blue Boar in Ultima I? This site, which lists all the shops names in Ultima I, doesn't mention anything about the Blue Boar...--Sega381 00:45, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
