The a(n) represent the number of n-move routes of a fairy chess piece starting in the central square (m = 5) on a 3 X 3 chessboard. This fairy chess piece behaves like a king on the eight side and corner squares but on the central square the king goes crazy and turns into a red king, see A179596.
For the central square the 512 red kings lead to 47 different red king sequences, see the cross-references for some examples.
The sequence above corresponds to four A[5] vectors with decimal [binary] values 367 [1,0,1,1,0,1,1,1,1], 463 [1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1,1], 487 [1,1,1,1,0,0,1,1,1] and 493 [1,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,1]. These vectors lead for the corner squares to A179596 and for the side squares to A126473.
This sequence belongs to a family of sequences with g.f. (1 + (k+2)*x + (2*k-4)*x^2)/(1 - 2*x - (k+8)*x^2 - (2*k)*x^3). Red king sequences that are members of this family are A179607 (k=0), A179605 (k=1), A179601 (k=2), A179597 (k=3; this sequence) and A086348 (k=4). Another member of this family is A179609 (k = -4).

a(n) represents the number of n-move routes of a fairy chess piece starting in the central square (m = 5) on a 3 X 3 chessboard. This fairy chess piece behaves like a king on the eight side and corner squares but on the central square the king goes crazy and turns into a red king, see A179596.
The sequence above corresponds to 24 red king vectors, i.e., A[5] vectors, with decimal values 27, 30, 51, 54, 57, 60, 90, 114, 120, 147, 150, 153, 156, 177, 180, 210, 216, 240, 282, 306, 312, 402, 408 and 432. These vectors lead for the corner squares to A015523 and for the side squares to A152187.
This sequence belongs to a family of sequences with g.f. (1 + (k-4)*x)/(1 - 3*x - k*x^2). Red king sequences that are members of this family are A007483 (k= 2), A015521 (k=4), A179606 (k=5; this sequence), A154964 (k=6), A179603 (k=7) and A179599 (k=8). We observe that there is no red king sequence for k=3. Other members of this family are A006190 (k=1), A133494 (k=0) and A168616 (k=-2).
Inverse binomial transform of A052918.
The sequence b(n+1) = 6*a(n), n >= 0 with b(0)=1, is a berserker sequence, see A180147. The b(n) sequence corresponds to 16 A[5] vectors with decimal values between 111 and 492. These vectors lead for the corner squares to sequence c(n+1)=4*A179606(n), n >= 0 with c(0)=1, and for the side squares to A180140. - Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 14 2010

The a(n) represent the number of n-move routes of a fairy chess piece starting in a given side square (m = 2, 4, 6 or 8) on a 3 X 3 chessboard. This fairy chess piece behaves like a king on the eight side and corner squares but on the central square the king goes crazy and turns into a red king, see A179596.
The sequence above corresponds to 10 red king vectors, i.e., A[5] vectors, with decimal values 239, 351, 375, 381, 431, 471, 477, 491, 494, and 501. These vectors lead for the corner squares to A015525 and for the central square to A179599.
