Publication history
Troll Gods was written by Greg Stafford and Sandy Petersen with William Dunn, with a cover by Tom Sullivan, and illustrations by Dave Dobyski, and was published by The Avalon Hill Game Co. in 1990 as a boxed set with an 88-page book, a 28-page book, and a large two-color map.[2]
Shannon Appelcline explained that by 1987, RuneQuest was the only role-playing game still being published by Avalon Hill, which wanted to cut production costs on the game, so that "in-house cartographer Dave Dobyski was given all artwork assignments for RuneQuest. Though his maps were top rate, he wasn't an illustrator, and it showed in the amateurish drawings that appeared starting in Troll Gods (1989)."[3]: 222–223
