Blockers: A New Sudoku Idea From An Olympic Athlete!

Описание: ** TODAY'S PUZZLE **
Fenners' puzzles are always a treat and this one, which features a new rule, is absolutely up to his usual (olympic!) standard. It's a really fascinating idea, which we suspect we'll see again but not easy to grasp the implications of. See how you get on (and do join us for our Blue Prince stream later!)

Play the puzzle at the links below:

Rules:
Normal 9x9 Sudoku rules apply.
Blockers: Digits in diamonds can never be used on a different clue type than the clue type the diamond lives on.
Renban: Digits on a purple line form a set of consecutive digits in any order.
Dutch Whispers: Two adjacent digits on an orange line must differ by at least 4.
German Whispers: Two adjacent digits on a green line must differ by at least 5.
Region Sum: The 3x3 box border divide blue lines into segments; each segment along an individual line must have the same sum.
