Fingoul can disengage, or use his initiative to shift
before e2 rushes in. e2's move is reckless, and the
only thing it gains is that it does prevent Fingoul from
shifting. Fingoul could still disengage.

Bullfighters have the same options, and/or can defend,
or claim they're in a special sport situation that
they've trained for and so get a special rule.

Ya, or e2 could not be foolhardy in the first place, and
move to 3 hexes from Fingoul, and then move and attack
him the next turn from the rear.
