Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by valerie.

Hm. It *is* logically solvable. I wish I'd kept notes! I used:
* edge logic on the 10 in column 1
* a little internal edge logic on the 6 in column 8 (I'm not sure that bit was needed)
* color and edge logic on the 6 in row 3 combined with a step or two of mild lookahead
* and the last bit was careful color logic on the red and black 2s in rows 5 and 6.
