There are no negative constraints of any kind.
1) Sudoku
- Place the digits 1 through 9 once each in every row, column, and box.
2) Renban
- Numbers along the purple outlined grey Renban lines must be consecutive, but in any order, and cannot repeat.
3) XV
- Two cells adjacent to an X sum to 10.
4) Parity Arrows
- The circle sums either all of the odd digits or all of the even digits along the connected line; to be determined by the solver. (A green arrow is cosmetic only)
5) Oddruple
- The digit in a circle at the intersection of 4 cells indicates how many of those cells are odd.
Solution code: Please enter the 18 digits of Row 9 followed by Column 1.

@Zombie Hunter: Thanks so far. I do not yet get the impression, that you are taking us completely seriously.
You have not erased the link we asked you to from the puzzle. It is still a bit hidden. In both language versions. At the end of the black bar. Please delete it or we moderators take actions like changing the puzzle ourselves.
I do not speak against or in favour of your goals, but against placing them here because they contain to a certain degree political statements.

I am willing to do that, but I don't understand how an approved government issued uniform item can be offensive. I enjoyed spending time with the German pilots in the Officers Club after our flights. They really liked the patch and we traded ours with theirs. Perhaps the world has changed and I never changed with it. I sympathize with your desire to avoid contention. My theme was to honor the fallen on the 20th anniversary of their departure and help those now in need.

Hello Zombie Hunter,
please complete the removals by:
- deleting the paragraph 6) from the English version
- deleting the motive-giving patch from the English and the German version
I'm aware, that without the text and expecially the patch the underlying theme and your work as author can not be fully acknowledged. Yet Hausigel's point is correct and I agree with it. You should then change your hidden comment as well.

Very nice coloring exercise. All the rules at first scared me, but they each play so well together in determining the parity of the board. I'm glad you talked me into it! Try this everyone!
And lovely job making the puzzle look like the patch too.
My prayers go out to all those who have served and are still serving.

My deepest gratitude to one of the best puzzle makers I know. Thank you for taking the time to solve my puzzle. ~ZH
