Re: races
As long as it was that player's turn (i.e., he wasn't helping someone else) then yes, it is legal. The rules say you can discard a Race or Class card at any time on any turn (in the Character Stats section) and that you can play a Race or Class card at any time on your turn or immediately when you acquire it (in the When to Play section). Combat during your own turn satisfies both conditions.
