Hello all,
My stating this should not be a "spoiler"; an early XYZ-Wing, which leaves basically Brute Force......BUT....a Finned XY-Wing does solve it, albeit without proving the puzzle's uniqueness through logic. Interested in reading what others come up with....
Enjoy the puzzle....

I have to settle for two steps as well Code: |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
|c35 2 1 | 56 4 8 | 9 7 b36 |
|d358 6 48 |e57 9 f27-3| 128 148 a38 |
| 7 349 489 | 1 26 23 | 268 468 5 |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
| 9 158 3 | 4 678 17 | 1678 1568 2 |
| 2 18 67 | 3 5 9 | 1678 168 4 |
| 4 158 67 | 678 2678 127 | 3 1568 9 |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
| 68 49 2 | 789 78 5 | 46 3 1 |
| 368 349 489 | 89 1 46 | 5 2 7 |
| 1 7 5 | 2 3 46 | 468 9 68 |
+----------------------+----------------------+-----------------------+
|
1): (3)r2c9 = r1c9 - (3=5)r1c1 - r2c1 = (5-7)r2c4 = (7)r2c6 => - 3r2c6
Code: |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 35 2 1 | 56 4 8 | 9 7 36 |
| 35 6 a48 | 57 9 27 | 128 148 3-8|
| 7 49 489 | 1 26 3 | 268 468 5 |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 9 158 3 | 4 678 17 | 1678 1568 2 |
| 2 18 67 | 3 5 9 | 1678 168 4 |
| 4 158 67 | 678 2678 127 | 3 1568 9 |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
| 68 c49 2 | 789 78 5 | d46 3 1 |
| 68 3 b49 | 89 1 46 | 5 2 7 |
| 1 7 5 | 2 3 46 | e468 9 f68 |
+--------------------+----------------------+----------------------+
|
2): (8=4)r2c3 - (4=9)r8c3 - (9=4)r7c2 - r7c7 = (4-8)r9c7 = (8)r9c9 => - 8r2c9; solves it. |

One step after basics.
Forcing chains:
Whatever the candidate in R7C2 (4 or 9) 8 in R2C9 is always false.
4R7C2-(4=6)R7C7-(6=8)R9C9-8R2C9;
9R7C2-9R3C2=(9-8)R3C3=8R2C13-8R2C9=>-8R2C9=>R2C9=3=>solution
Ciao a Tutti
