OK, so the pattern's a BIT obvious

Try the new one at A5274425
That should prove to be a bit more of a challenge!

Cripes you can say that again! With about fifteen to twenty numbers missing in any row, column or cell, you can only narrow any single square down to about ten possibilities. How are you supposed to reduce that to one?

Ah... Have I made it too difficult then...
I should have a go at solving it.. It should be possible though...... Hmmm....
What do you reckon is a fair number to leave in each logical unit then... (or to leave out).. I've cleared just over 50% of the cells at the moment... It wouldn't be too tricky to add some numbers back in...

This lends itself to solving by a computer program. Failing that, a few hundred hours should be enough; or perhaps not.

I did wonder about writing a solver - but I'm not that good at those sorts of things...
I've started solving the 2nd sudok42 and it is VERY complex (but then again it would be....).
I'm going to add a couple of 100 numbers back in...
