Since warlord can change, what happens with Warlord Traits?
For example:
At 500 I make Lt Joe Schmoe my Warlord, I give him Trait X.
At 1000, I make Captain Awesome my Warlord, I give him Trait Y. Lt Joe Schmoe is still in the list.
I assume LT Joe Schmoe just loses the trait unless I actively choose to do something like use a stratagem to "re-grant" his trait for example?

Only the warlord gets a warlord trait unless you buy another with a strat, so the former warlord loses his trait if he's replaced

Any limit on detachments? I play Guard and would like to bring a patrol and an auxilary detachment at 500 points. Is it possible?

Or a Super-Heavy Auxilliary, if you're Imperial Knights or Chaos Knights.

Only the warlord gets a warlord trait unless you buy another with a strat, so the former warlord loses his trait if he's replaced Good to know.
Though on the subject of characters and such, how does wargear work? For example if I had the 5 point Cloak on my technomancer in game 1 (since that's all I have points for) but have enough spare points for the Node in game 2, should I swap it out?

As I said earlier to Jordan: - if a model with an upgrade (ie: flamer) is in an earlier list, it must remain in later lists. You can of course add upgrades to other models in the unit, but flamer guy must remain in your list somewhere. Think of the models as set once they go in, and the models and whatever they're holding are permanent on the display board... you can just shuffle them around to different positions if needed. So your technomancer, once he has an upgrade, has to keep it. Much like if I give a hive tyrant adrenal glands, he has to keep that upgrade for every list afterwards. he can add MORE upgrades, but cannot lose one you've already given him.

Are you allowed to change subfaction or Army of Renown at all?
For instance - at 500 points I field Typhus, some Poxwalkers, and a few Plague Marines. I play them as Harbingers, and decide to use the rules for the Terminus Est Assault Force. Then, moving up to 1000 I decide I'd like to add a Plagueburst Crawler - but vehicles cannot be taken in Terminus Est. Can I then stop playing Terminus Est? At that point, could I switch from Harbingers to, say, Inexorable?
Also, are we playing on 44x30 boards at 500 and 1000?

your dynasty, hive fleet, subfaction, warlord, etc. can all change game to game. Just no physical model or upgrade can leave your list.
It will be a smaller board at the 500 point level.

Are things like Chapter Command, Cryptek Arcana, Visions of the Augurium, etc things you can change, or are they locked in?
