I loaded my Yankees onto transports and shipped them off to Cuba, but I cannot get them to unload! The port of Santiago is under partisan control and open. Am I missing something since I had no option for amphibious transport?

Is the port at least strength 5? If it is below strength 5, the transport will need to end its turn in the port, and then can unload the next.

As for amphibs, in this campaign you will have to use Long Range ("LR") Amphibious Transports if you want to unload units on hostile shores. Regular amphibs aren't available - they're pointless given the distances involved.

Thanks for the reply the port shows str. 8. The transports are not able to enter the port hex.

Is the port's strength marker red or blue? If it's red, the Spanish still own it (even if you have taken Santiago itself), which would be because the Spanish still have a unit next to it.

Alternatively, are you sure the transport has enough APs to move into the port?
