%N Rolling icosahedron footprints: number of n X 3 0..11 arrays starting with 0 where 0..11 label vertices of an icosahedron and every array movement to a horizontal, diagonal or antidiagonal neighbor moves along an icosahedral edge.
%C Column 3 of A223233.
%H R. H. Hardin, <a href="/A223228/b223228.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..210</a>
%F Empirical: a(n) = 35*a(n-1) - 90*a(n-2).
%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Aug 17 2018: (Start)
%F G.f.: 5*x*(5 - 18*x) / (1 - 35*x + 90*x^2).
%F a(n) = (2^(-1-n)*((35-sqrt(865))^n*(-15+sqrt(865)) + (15+sqrt(865))*(35+sqrt(865))^n)) / sqrt(865).
