How do you amphibious invade? Can someone please give me a brief explanation on how many transports I would need to attack Finland from Great Britain. I have 5 transports loaded and sitting off the coast of finland, but after I unload 1 infantry troop it wont allow the others to unload. Russia is on the verge of falling so I need to get some pressure on Germany.

Thanks in advance.

Each WA transport has 3 amphib capacity points (if you haven't researched), so 5 gives you 15 amphib points. That's enough for 3 infantry units. Assuming it isn't winter, you should be able to land 3 units, not 1. I'm not sure what is keeping the others from unloading. If it is winter, you should not be able to invade in a cold weather region.

Could it be supply? Wouldn't each landing unit consume 1 unit of supply?

Don't load anything on the transports. You will move your troops directly from the UK to the invasion site.
Make sure you have a transport chain from the UK to the coast of Finland then add as many transports as you think you need in the sea area next to Finland. Each transport can move 25 points (infantry costs 5 each) and each transport will allow 3 points to invade. So 1 transport in each chain area and 5 next to Finland will allow you to invade with 3 infantry units assuming you haven't upgraded your transports.
