This puzzle has been great fun so far but after NINE separate VH steps, seven of which were deletions on digit <5>, I have still not completed the !?*% thing. Here is where I am at presently.

I hate to look for chains, but that may be next.

EDIT ADDED: I just noted the post by Danny (dja95376 ) and realized we were at the same level except that he spotted that wonderful "useless" skyscraper on <9> to kill the beast. Great job Danny |
