There should be a new category Minimod Master, especially made for Tycho. Tycho has solved many problems in Silent Hunter III that have been around for years. Thanks to him we can now write text to the game, which opens up wholly new areas of potential mod development from notepads to Enigma radio messages to war diaries. Thanks to him we can also now get the accurate Kriegsmarine grid, just as in the good old Aces of the Deep. He's also given us an analog clock, which gives a nice historical touch to the game and makes game play a little bit more fluent as a side effect, too. He's also found a historical Luftwaffe slide rule from somewhere, and converted that into a very good looking and handy U-boat slide rule. All of his mods have a very characteristic feeling. They always make me and many other SH3 enthusiasts think: "wow I've always wanted this to be added to the game, but never thought the game engine would allow it".

Tycho is also a very nice person. He's always been extremely helpful and patient with any kinds of requests for assistance, even though he needs to do all the helping in English, which is not his native language. Tycho has also always shared his works in the most sharing and humble way
