I really enjoyed this one, in the beginning I was thinking it was one of those many ones where I couldn't break into it, after some notation I found a small way in, really had a lot of fun solving this one :D
@sotolf: Thanks for trying the puzzle and glad you had fun with it! :-)

@Genie64 Great work getting through it! Thanks for trying the puzzle and I am glad you had fun with it ( pretty much my only goal with every puzzle :-) )!

@Bobby Thanks for trying the puzzle and I am glad it was fun. I was unsure how the combination of Renban and XV would work out, but I am happy with how it came out :-)

Oh wow! that's just really good! makes me feel that I still have a lot to learn... no step is over-complicated, there aren't that many clues, and everything still comes together in the end... Amazing!
@BMEP Thanks for trying the puzzle and for such a wonderful feedback! :-)

Added the word consecutive to the word sequential to clarify it better.

Great puzzle! Can I suggest you change the word "sequential" to "consecutive", in the description? I had never come across Renbans before, and had to look them up as I was not sure what sort of "sequence" the Renban was supposed to follow.
@Boondiggle Thanks for trying the puzzle and the wonderful feedback! I have made the change and added the word consecutive in brackets next to sequential in the description. Do let me know if this is still ambiguous and I will remove the term sequential altogether.
