On another point, technically, the heroic combat is outside the usual fight phase. The mini rulebook states that you resolve heroic combats before the fight phase (but then obviously has heroic combat listed as a heroic action in the fight phase). This is basically the reason it is permitted to benefit from both, even though again it is contradictory.
Assuming the mini-rulebook is the same as the Hardback rulebook this isn't correct. It simply states that Heroic Combats are resolved first, not 'before' the Fight phase - they are very much part of the Fight phase.
As for the original question, it is a direct contradiction between the rulebook and the FAQ and something we were keen to sort out for the Community FAQ.
However, in a slight correction to Southy's post above, for the Community FAQ we ruled that a hero could BENEFIT from more than one Heroic Action per phase but could only CALL one per phase.
This seems to be most in keeping with the intention of the rules, it allows the FAQ ruling to stand as well as preventing stupid situations like a wizard Heroic Channelling within 6" of a Heroic Move and either wasting his Might point or being unable to move for the turn - both of which seem counter intuitive.
As Southy says though, new FAQs are on their way soon so hopefully it will be soon be officially clarified.
