*** TODAY'S PUZZLE ***
A fanatastic debut on the channel today from apetersen and their Fog Of War sudoku, Lines In The Fog. This has some absolutely brilliant ideas in it and is just a joy from start to finish. There is an outstanding question that Simon would like some help with though - please let us know in the comments if you know the answer!!

Rules:
Normal sudoku rules apply. The grid is covered in fog. Correctly entering digits will remove the fog in the surrounding cells. Each line has a distinct colour. Lines do not branch, cross, and only move orthoganally. All lines are renban (ie contain a set of non-repeating consecutive digits, in any order). All lines are “region sum” (ie along a line, each line segment within a different 3x3 box must sum to the same total (N). N may be different for each line.) All lines have a length of 3 or more. One line is also a thermometer and digits will increase from its bulb. (The bulb may be in the middle of the line.)
