fun solve!

lots of el, etc goes into it. only gonna give a hint on the 2-way though...c2r5 has to be black. look around in r's 4 and 5 and see if you can find why

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by infrapinklizzard.

Edge logic on the 5 in r1 makes c1-2 white. Then line logic.

Two way logic on the 3 in r4:
-if it extends left into c2 then the 3 in c2 forces the 2 in r5 be in c1-2
-if it extends right into c5 then the 1 in c5 forces the 2 in r5 to be in c1-2
So either way, the 2 in r5 must be in c1-2.

Then LL.

Edge logic on the 2 in r4: if it is in c6-7, then there is no room for the 1 in r5. So r4c6 must be white.

Then LL to finish.
