Hi again,
I've read the Necron FAQ and stumbled over the part where it says that rending hits ignore the WBB roll. Under the 5th edition rules, rending hits that roll a 6 to wound count as being AP2, so normally, Necrons would get their WBB roll. What is now the case?

Wrong rending rules, check page 42 of the BRB, "these wounds count as wounds from a power weapon".

Ah, thanks, I thought that the rending rule for rending would have the same wording as the rending rule for close combat attacks. So Necrons get WBB for rending shooting wounds but none for close combat rending wounds?

Yup pretty much so.
