    Good stuff, pushing me to my limit... 3d almost foiled this old fossil, which doesn't say much, but I digress

      Fun, w some clever headscratchers in there, thx! Somehow conjured the answer for 3D but still don’t get it…

        Thanks for solving! FO(SS)IL is an abbreviation for steamship (SS) inside a word for ruin, in the sense of "cause to fail"

        Excellent, love the misdirection of some of these! I spent far too long searching for an anagram in 3D, and for alternating letters in 2D. Thanks!
