Continuing with the Entropic Lines concept introduced in Entropic Lines 101, Raumplaner and I are pleased to present another puzzle featuring this mechanism, in combination with X Sudoku rules.
Rules
Normal sudoku rules apply.
X sudoku rules apply: digits may not repeat on either diagonal.
Entropic lines: Any set of three sequential cells along an entropic line must contain a low digit (1-3), a middle digit (4-6), and a high digit (7-9). Digits may repeat on a line, if allowed by other rules.
This is puzzle #2 of the entropic lines introductory series.
previous puzzle (#1)
next puzzle (#3)
Solution code: Solution code: Row 2 followed by column 9 (18 digits, left to right, top to bottom, no spaces/commas).
