Current table
T(n,k)=Number of nXk arrays of occupancy after each element moves to some 
horizontal, diagonal or antidiagonal neighbor

Table starts
.0......1.........2...........4..............8.............16............32
.0......9........50.........484...........3864..........32400........267264
.0.....64......1056.......45369........1337130.......44315649....1404725868
.0....441.....21660.....4096576......438377904....56606878084.6757282699788

I'm guessing what isn't clear - maybe just explain everything differently.

1.  Put a marker at each nXk node
2.  Move each marker to a nw, ne, w, e, sw or se neighbor (but not n or s)
3.  Count the number of markers at each node. (=occupancy array)
4.  Record the number of different occupancy arrays, which is what's in the 
table.

Different movement patterns can give the same occupancy array so movement count 
doesn't factor occupancy count.

Eg in the case of 2x2 all-1 occupancy count, there are two movement patterns 
that give it e sw e nw  and  se w ne w
