'''Honroutou''' {{kana|混老頭}} is a standard yaku, focusing on just the [[jihai|honors]] and [[routouhai|terminals]]. To score honroutou, the hand must contain only honors and terminals. If the hand is all honors or all terminals, then [[tsuuiisou]] or [[chinroutou]] will be scored instead.
'''Honroutou''' {{kana|混老頭}} is a standard yaku, focusing on just the [[honor]]s and [[terminals]]. To score honroutou, the hand must contain only honors and terminals. The hand must contain at least one honor and one terminal; an all honor hand would be [[tsuuiisou]], while an all terminal hand would be [[chinroutou]].

This yaku requires [[routouhai|terminal]] and [[jihai|honor]] tiles only. While terminals may be used for [[shuntsu|sequences]], this yaku cannot form those sequences.  Otherwise, this yaku would no longer be honroutou but rather [[chanta]]. Naturally, a concentration of honor and terminal tiles are required to even consider this yaku. A majority of honroutou hands are open, especially when they only utilize pon to call tiles.
This yaku requires every tile to be a [[terminal]] or [[honor]] tile. [[Shuntsu|Sequences]] are not allowed, because a sequence always contains non-terminal tiles. Naturally, a concentration of honor and terminal tiles are required to even consider this yaku. A majority of honroutou hands are open, using [[pon]] to complete a triplet-based hand.

At minimum, it is impossible to score this yaku without at least either [[toitoi]] or [[chiitoitsu]].  So, this yaku is actually at minimum, the equivalent of 4 han.
It is impossible to score this yaku without at least either [[toitoi]] or [[chiitoitsu]].  So this yaku is, at minimum, worth 4 han.


When factoring [[fu]], the combination of [[koutsu|ankou]] and [[koutsu|minkou]] (closed and open triplets) produces a fu count of higher than 10.  The lowest possible fu is generated with 4 minkou, leading to [[tanki|hadaka tanki]] (lone pair wait).  Adding the base 20 fu for any hand, this yaku is guaranteed greater than 30 fu; and with the rules of fu, that number is actually rounded up to at least 40 fu.  Therefore, a honroutou composed of ankou and minkou is at minimum a [[mangan]].
