Operation B-1 was the codename for an Imperial plan to use chemical warfare against several Lucis Commonwealth capital cities. The operation was deemed as the most controversial plans ever made in history. Following the loss in the Middle East Campaign, Marshal Count Chien devised a plan to use the newly-made chemical, Brynyl as means for use in bombs. The Brynyl-armed bombs would then be dropped in several Lucis Commonwealth Capital Cities, which the marshal hoped would forever knock the Allies out of the war for good. The plan would also go to eradicate several population centres'. It was heavily supported by Imperial Marshal Bernard Gregor. Before the operation would be carried out, the Brynyl Warheads were tested on the city of Kawingyi, which had a population of nearly 50,000 Bethausians. On July 21, one bomb was tested and the results proved catastrophic. 100% of the town's population was wiped out and the land around it proved to be nearly inhabitable so much that the Quenminese developed a gas mask that would repel the effects of brynyl. Nevertheless, the Imperial Council grew worried over the fact that several Allied nations would retaliate by dropping chemical bombs over major Imperial cities, something which Quenminese Prime Minister Ly Hoc Thao Vien, Maximillian I, and Benito Solira Solidor feared.

2 weeks after the testing on Kawingyi, the Imperial Council forcefully rejected the plan and it was to never be raised up again. It was revealed to the Allies in late-1944, as Bethausia was being liberated. All personnel implicated in the project were summarily executed without trial.
