Just polish this one off quickly before a G&T ... I thought! I played many more moves than this and probably still some extraneous ones..
Quote: | x-wing(5)
skyscraper(5)
flightless m-wing(16) ; (6=1)r5c2 - r5c1=(1-6)r3c1=r3c5 transport -(6)r1c6=r4c6 ; r4c1<>6, r5c4<>6
xy-wing(69-5) r1c4 ; r4c6<>5
xy-wing(59-7) r5c4 ; r8c7<>7
BUG+1 ; r2c7=7 |

Hmmm! Normally, when my solver finds concurrent results for a technique, one or more of the occurrences turn out to be extraneous. After seeing the posted solutions, I checked the puzzle and found only two extraneous step among those listed by my solver. In addition, the Kite for <9> is important but obscure to locate.
Code: | r58 X-Wing <> 5 r19c4,r4c9
turbot/Multiple Colors <> 5 r2c1,r7c6,r9c3
r3c6 2-String Kite <> 6 r4c1
r1c1 2-String Kite <> 7 r4c7 extraneous
r3c4 2-String Kite <> 9 r5c9
<69+5> XY-Wing r1c4/r1c6+r5c4 <> 5 r4c6 complementary
<59+6> XY-Wing r5c4/r1c4+r4c6 <> 6 r1c6 extraneous
<59+7> XY-Wing r5c4/r5c7+r8c4 <> 7 r8c7

I used eight moves, with a Skyscraper on 9 finishing it off. |
