And that the way its worded combat doesnt actually start till the combat phase.
Not sure what wording you're referring to, but it's like any other restriction based on being in base-to-base contact with the enemy. You can't move if you're charged, you can't cast magic, you can't make a Courage with your hero to get standfast...being able to shoot/throw at someone in base contact would be an exception...not to mention, the shoot phase is before the combat phase too...
Sounds like the grimhammer player wants to have his lembas and eat it too
