Yeah so this has me confused can you have the normal special Harlequin Masque and a Dark Eldar or Eldar normal or special CAD.

Sure, why not? Is there some special rule limiting the use of the Harlequin Masque?

none at all

The Harlequin Masque detachment as well as all the formations are exactly like any other formation or detachment in their utilisation.

You can have as many detachments as you wish in 7th. There is no inbuilt limit, barring points . This applies to all armies.

I thought you couldn't have a CAD and another CAD w/ out them being the same Faction.

No. That's not a rule anywhere. There is literally no restriction of what Detachments or what amount you can bring other than Detachments that contain a Unique Character.

No such rule exists. You're likely thinking of allied where you cannot be the same faction.

If that character in question is Unique, then that would limit the number you can take, but I don't believe they are in this case.

Only the solitaire is unique

The restriction with allied detachments is they can't be the same faction as the detachment that contains your warlord, and cannot contain your world. I'm sure thats what you meant but I wanted to chime in that you CAN have two allied detachments from the same faction, as long as that faction is not the same as your warlord. Also your warlord need no be in a CAD detachment, he can be in any detachment that does not prohibit the a warlord being a member (like allied detachments)

Correct. To further elaborate, this is a perfectly legal configuration...

Inquisitorial Detachment (Ordo Xenos Inquisitor is Warlord)
Eldar Combined Arms Detachment
Eldar Allied Detachment

It's legal because the Allied Detachment is not the same Faction as the Warlord.
