Quick question for the more seasoned veterans.

Can tomb banshee scream INTO combat when they themselves are not in combat or b2b contact?

Yes they can, it's in the faq.
However they need line of site and if they are engaged in cc they can only scream a unit in b2b.

Also worth noting is it's not actually a shooting attack.
It's a special attack that takes place in the shooting phase. So it isn't affected by anything that affects or protects against shooting attacks (cloak of twilight prime example)
So yeah broken :p
I shouldn't complain though, I run VC aswell ;)
