Invading Norway.

Noob German vs. AI.
I bought some Amphib Points and moved some infantry near Ports, but, I'm not seeing any Amphib invasion option pop up for the units near ports.
I also bought some Paras, and I know that they can drop in Norway after I Declare War.
How do I get at Norway with Amphib Invasion?
Thanks.

Highlight your unit that is near the port city and select the load amphib option on the unit options .!.
The unit will be listed in port as an amphibious ship. You can then move it into the North Sea zone so it can be unloaded on the coast of Norway on the NEXT turn.
Be cautious about enemy naval units and airpower. APs and TRs are easy kills for both the player and AI if caught at sea.
Good luck!

Keep in mind that your new amphibious/transport ships will be added to the last fleet listed in a given port.

I have purchased Amphib Points. I have a Landing Group at sea in the North Sea Zone. I see the "1AP" in the North Sea Zone box.
I have waited a couple of turns with the unit in that sea zone.
BUT, the option to "Unload" never lights up as an option.
This is very confusing.

Click on a coastal hex you want to invade. The four button hex related panel will have an invasion button if it is a hex you can invade from. This is the panel you can do air recon from. I don't have the game up or I would give you a picture.

Great job, Chuck !
That worked ! Click on the Hex and the option to invade is there!! The "Unload" option applies to Sea Transport, not Amphib !
I should have been able to figure it out myself !!!
