Dragon is not happy whatever I try: "game bbb..." "game white bbb..." or "game w bbb..." or "game W bbb..."

Dragon is also not happy about "levelsblitzgame 300 0", Horizon is. However, the Dragon issues might also have other causes; I never see the "engineok" message after connecting. Horizon gives me name, author, options and then engineok. However, as you confirmed the listed options are sometimes not actually supported :D

Dragon should send the the 'engineok' message, after it receives a command 'guide'. Have you send it?
If you send 'capabilities', you will receive the list of guide commands that dragons supports. Both 'levelsblitzgame' and 'game' are not supported. Instead of 'game', you can substitute a 'position' and a sequence of 'move'.
