My first set puzzle - wanted to come up with a variation on a common puzzle type and came up with these modified XVs, which are stronger than I expected. There's a few redundant clues here so if you're looking for a tougher version that's still very solvable, ignore the X inside box 9. Thanks to all the testers and feedback from the CtC Discord server.

Normal Sudoku rules apply.
Diagonal XVs: Digits in cells diagonally connected by an X or V must sum to 10 or 5 respectively.
