Has anyone been able to defeat Montalban in his hideout on the buccaneer difficulty when you are old and in poor health? (You know, without cheats)

There isn't a buccaneer difficulty so not sure which one you mean. But this is my oldest encounter with Montalban at age 87 playing at the third level, Adventurer.

Not on Swash, but on Rogue and below, I can just succeed while being old using the cutlass. On Swashbuckler level, I never managed to do so, so I get him while I am young. (He is, anyway) Loki, I think he means the Swashbuckler level.

I fought him at swashbuckler at the age of sixty and originally i started off with rapier but my aging captain was swiftly beat back. I reloaded the file and tried with a cutlass which worked very well. Dodge then counterattack is the only way it seems to fence as an old man. So it is possible but it may take a couple tries

My oldest age for defeating the poor dumb bastard was in my fifties I believe. And I was a fencing major who hardly ever went to port so my health was in the pits! But when our swords clashed and I stormed his fort, knowing that even if I lost I will have effectively stolen the bulk of his fortune and destroyed his chances of ever stealing from another poor English family... I knew, I just knew... He was doomed from the start. My blows struck true, my blood pumped faster than ever and for just a moment my youth returned to my body. The old Marquis had no such luck.
