Not sure what you mean here.

What I mean is that, once you reach a certain number of units (or food 
amount) firing (there is no way I'm counting how many), each unit goes 
through the animation of firing (eg Dragoons open up their back), but no 
"missle" (plasma ball in the case of the dragoon) comes out, and no 
damage is done to the target (nor is there any animation on the target). 
It's quite funny (but annoying as well) seeing a protoss scout only fire 
1 missile (instead of the usual 2).

I think that there is a max unit's limit as well, but it has a message 
like the unplacable units one ("unable to place unit (XXX) at position 
(XXX,YYY)" - try building tanks a large number of tanks without a relay 
point).
