You can either Step then Attack or Attack then Step, actually. The same should apply to Waits: either it's Step then Wait, or it's Wait then (in case a condition triggers) Step (and do whatever else is allowed).

Because A gave up (lowercase) initiative and a Step in exchange for getting to interrupt B when B comes into range. While B now manages to retain all of {initiative, a Step, a right 'interrupt' A}.
