				| I played an X-Wing on 5, after which I couldn't find anything else and posted to that effect. 
 Dan pointed me to box 5 where I noticed in a nanosecond the quad that I stupidly overlooked. After that, basics finished it off.

				| Marty, 
 Hard to explain when no advanced moves are required.
 
 Look at where the 2s must be placed in C12.  That should reveal a pair 18 in R6.
 Look at R6 and C6.  They force a quad 1469 in B5.
 Look at 8 in C456.
