i came upon a question concerning the Lifta droppa on a big mek stompa and the rules upon using it and it got me thinking.

for example If i have a mob in close combat with a dreadnought, can i use the lifta droppa to pick up the dreadnought out of close combat with the lifta droppa?

Is it considered a shooting attack? IE would the prohibition against shooting at models in hth apply?

It is a shooting attack and you can't shoot someone locked in assault.
