 Without harder techniques i think, that (beside of basics) x/xy/xyz-wing, UR and a unique loop (type 3) are needed. 	  | Code: |  	  | +-------------------+ | . . . . 2 9 1 . . |
 | . . . 6 . . . . . |
 | 1 . 6 . . 5 8 . . |
 | 4 . 1 . . . . 9 . |
 | 5 . . . 8 . . . 7 |
 | . 6 . . . . 5 . 3 |
 | . . 8 4 . . 6 . 9 |
 | . . . . . 7 . . . |
 | . . 4 8 6 . . . . |
 +-------------------+

				| An xy-wing in boxes 8-9, and two serpentine xy-chains in boxes 4-9 will solve it.  Not pretty, but it works.

				| Ravel, 
 I was looking at the unique loops in R123 and hoping I could avoid the XYZ-wing at the end.
 
 Will look again after dinner.  Seems like a Medusa candidate to me!
