We're not only looking for knowledge, but also someone who is proactive, disciplined, self-motivated and creative- so that means that if we have to tell you what to do, you're not the one for us.
The other thing is that you have to get familiar with modding at least the text files. If you can't do that, there's not much you can do to help us. Practise on your EB1 build- as long as you backup the files, there's nothing that can go wrong. Try rewriting all the faction descriptions and character biographies just to see how they come up in game- something like that. It's not a job that we need doing, but it will familiarize you with the process.
Here are some suggestions for areas to look into: Iberia, the Steppes, the Caucasus region. Cutandpaste from wikipedia won't really impress us.
