I worked very hard and long on this one. I had to redo basics after most deletions, due to either other basic deletions or VH technique deletions. It only required me five steps as follows:
Quote:
a Type 2 UR <56>, skyscraper <1>, xy-wing <168>, kite <6> and xy-wing <159>

w-wing grouped link... (6=1)r4c1 - (1)r4c7 = (1)r456c8 - (1=6)r7c8; r7c1 <> 6

the resulting intersection of 6's in block 9 removes 6 from r9c7...

opens up a UR infered xy-wing (again). using the 78UR in r59c79 makes this inference 78URr59c79[(4)r9c9 = (1)r9c7]...

you can make this xy-wing...

(1=8)r7c1 - (8=4)r7c9 - 78UR[(4)r9c9 = (1)r9c7]; r9c13 <> 1.

singles.
