The board has n^2 squares. The colors do not matter. T(n,k) is zero unless k divides n^2. The tiles are rook-connected polygons made from n^2/k squares.
This is the "labeled" version of the problem. Symmetries of the square are not taken into account. Rotations and reflections count as different.
A348453 (the main entry for this problem) displays the same data in a more compact way (by omitting the zero entries from each row).
