+
+## Using Bot Warfare
+
+Start Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 multiplayer.
+
+If the mod loaded, you will see the `Mod: bot_warfare` text in the top left.
+
+{/* TODO: Add a screenshot showing the active `bot_warfare` mod indicator. */}
+
+### Bot Limits and Performance
+
+Use the **Bot awareness quality** setting in the Bot Warfare menu to balance
+performance and responsiveness. Lower settings use less performance, but bots
+take longer to notice enemies. **Medium** is the default starting point.
+
+<Aside type="caution" title="Xbox 360 performance">
+  There is no fixed bot limit. Start with a small number of bots and add more
+  gradually. If the match slows down, lower Bot awareness quality or reduce the
+  bot count.
+</Aside>
+
+Xenia can handle more bots than Xbox 360, depending on the map and your PC.
+Start lower and increase the count if performance stays stable.
+
+### In-Game Menu
+
+In a System Link or private match, press <Badge text="D-Pad Down" /> to open the
+Bot Warfare menu. Use it to add bots, change bot difficulty, and adjust
+settings.
+

+
+### Rename Bots
+
+Bot names are stored in `botnames.txt`.
+
+Open the file and add one bot name per line:
