DP (78) b2p19, r4c56, r7c45 using internals
(4)r4c56 == r7c5 - r9c6 = (4)r4c6 => -4 r4c7; stte

Edit: the above DP is incomplete (cf. JC Van Hay's and eleven's post below) The complete DP (78) b2p19, r4c56, r7c45, r13c3 is not efficient (not found a chain between 3r1c3 and 4r4c7 using internals or between 7r1c2 and 4r4c7 using externals)

Hi Cenoman,

Have a look at http://sudopedia.enjoysudoku.com/Deadly_Pattern.html

Best regards, JC.

Cenoman,

deadly (uniqueness) patterns have 2 properties:
- there are at least 2 "inner" pattern solutions
- candidates outside cannot kill all but exactly one of these solutions

In your incomplete pattern any 7 or 8 in r13 would kill one of the pattern solutions.
With 78r13c3 all 78's are pairs in all units, so there cannot be 7 or 8 outside in these units.

Since I read JC's and eleven's posts the chorus "Shame, shame, shame on you..." plays in continuous loop on my stereo.
I'am ripe for tarring and feathering...
