In this example that you wrote, do you mean it as "we face a war (which hasn't started yet)" or "we face a war (which has already started)" ?
I'm wondering whether we could use {bam} not only for something which will happen in future, but also for something which has already begun.
bam is have the prospect of having to deal with. It's just a prospect. You're not already dealing with it.
If you say noH bam, you're not saying whether the war has
already begun or not. If a war has already begun, you might be
faced with the prospect of fighting in it (but you haven't already
joined in). If a war has not yet begun but looms, you might be
faced with the prospect of fighting when it starts.
