1. Can you stack various pieces of mundane equipment to get a 1+ armour save? e.g. Chaos knights have chaos armour (+4), a shield (+1), are mounted and have barding (+1 for each). I think that they should get one, but others disagree.
You are right and the others are wrong. See pg 83 of the main rulebook 'Cavalry Armour Saves'. The 1+ AS is one of the main strengths of Chaos Knights.

2. Would a model with Cloak of Beards work on another character who is in base contact but is in a challenge with another model? This is just a clarification of the rules, as the challenge rules in the BRB says that "they cannot be attacked by any other model for that round of combat", but not that other things like that don't work.
I've checked the High Elf book, the main rulebook and the rulebook FAQ's and I can't see a reason the Cloak wouldn't work here.
