Hopefully these are all familiar variants for most of you and you won't have to constantly read the constraint rules. I enjoyed creating this extreme variant and will likely try more extreme variant puzzles like this in the future - hopefully with more enjoyable logic. Hope you enjoy this one though!
Normal sudoku rules apply
Arrow: The digits along each arrow must sum to the digit in the circled cell.
Palindrome: Digits along a palindrome line read the same forwards or backwards.
Thermo: Digits along each thermometer must increase starting from the bulb end.
Odd/Even: Cells with a filled circle must be odd. Cells with a filled square must be even.
Killer Cage: The digits in a cage must sum to the number printed in its corner. Digits may not repeat within a cage.
Kropki: A black dot between cells indicates cell values with a 2:1 ratio. A white dot between cells indicates cells with consecutive values. Not all dots are shown.
Little Killer: Digits along diagonals pointed to by arrows outside the grid must sum to the number listed.
XV: Adjacent cells connected with an X must sum to 10. Adjacent cells connected with a V must sum to 5.
Sandwich: Clues outside the grid show the sum of digits sandwiched between the 1 and the 9 in that row or column.

Really nice logic! don´t know, if the XV (missing on the ctc link) would have made it easier though.

I liked all those different rules interacting to solve the puzzle. Very nice!

Very nice puzzle. I enjoyed it.
But it is true that the CTC link doesn't have the V and the X.
Thnks.

Once i realized the x and symbols were missing, the puzzle collapsed from there. Nice puzzle. Sandwich clue may be unnecessary.

I enjoyed this puzzle. It seems slightly more intricate than a one-star.
Also, the XV symbols are not on the CTC link.
