Overlapping Franken Swordfish ???

Postby daj95376 » Sat Dec 02, 2006 8:10 pm

There are a couple of finned X-Wings that will perform the eliminations below in [b5]. Is there a fish that I missed that'll explain all of the eliminations?

# after SSTS and assignments for <2>
# two overlapping Franken Swordfish a=[R158c469] & b=[R258c469] in <5>
# fin cell for 'a/b' Swordfish forces 'b/a' Swordfish
# symmetry on <5> across \-diagonal forces equivalent relationship in columns

... or franken jellyfish in c1258\r469b1 (not shown).

BTW your overlapping franken swordfish are merely finned ... not franken. There must be a box in the base and/or cover sets for the fish to be franken.
