This Menneske is a slight bit more than a VH:

Yes,

A very easy W-wing -26 (excited by 36) did it for me.

The basics were pretty good, I thought.

I took a different perspective on the UR:

Code:
 <27> UR[(6)r6c39 = (3)r5c9]r56c39 - (3=6)r4c7  =>  r6c7<>6
 +-----------------------------------------------------+
 |  2    5    8    |  3    7    9    |  4    6    1    |
 |  4    1    9    |  2    5    6    |  7    3    8    |
 |  6    7    3    |  8    4    1    |  9    2    5    |
 |-----------------+-----------------+-----------------|
 |  5    36   4    |  7    2    8    |  36   1    9    |
 |  9    23   27   |  6    1    4    |  8    5    27+3 |
 |  1    8    27+6 |  5    9    3    |  2-6  4    27+6 |
 |-----------------+-----------------+-----------------|
 |  7    9    1    |  4    36   2    |  5    8    36   |
 |  8    26   5    |  1    36   7    |  236  9    4    |
 |  3    4    26   |  9    8    5    |  1    7    26   |
 +-----------------------------------------------------+

I'm guessing you refer to the three extra candidates ... but I see only one inference and one inference stream: either the AUR is a type 2 UR or it's a type 1 UR.

In a recent discussion with Peter, he used a strong link based on two guardian cell candidates. I suggested that he use forcing chain streams for guardian cell candidates because the logic would be consistent when he encountered more than two candidates.

Now, I could/should have written three streams, one for each extra candidate, but I chose to use a strong link instead -- going against my advice to Peter. A fact that I fully expected him to catch!

BTW: I originally saw it as a forcing chain on (6)r6c3:

(6)r6c3 - (6)r6c7
(6)r6c3 = UR Type 3 - (6)r6c7

(Danny, I made exactly that point about using strong-link notation in URs/ADP in reply to the original post.)
But I bet you couldn't resist using it because it seems so much more elegant than a multi-stream layout - though I accept this is the only approach that scales to 2+ streams. Smile
Nice move by the way Exclamation

Yes, I couldn't help being pulled over to The Dark Side. _ Laughing _

Thanks!

You can also use the UR as a weak inhibiting link for the base digits

(6=27)r6c39 -UR- (27=3)r5c39 - (3=6)r4c7 => r6c7 <> 6

Even useful for those times when you have "solved" one of the UR cells
