Thnx, numbskull.
I think I have 16ac and 31ac now. To confirm, are the first two digits of 16ac the same as the middle digit of 31ac, which is the sum of the first and third digits of 31ac?
Also struggling with the NW corner (1ac, 1dn, 25dn). A nudge with one or more of these would great.

jif73, yes to your first query.

The first digit and 3rd digits of 1d are the same and are half of the middle digit of 31a

The second digit of 1a is the same as the first digit of 31a

Thnx again, numbskull, for providing the reassurance to get me over the line. I managed to clear up the NW corner and complete the rest of the puzzle without further hints.
Now to seek sustenance before reviewing all the clues and dice nets (a new term for this old codger).
Pardon, Arden but that was a hard 'un! Well played sir/ma'am/non-binary humanoid.
