Go back and check again, version 5.6.2 is the most recent version for the core game. Be sure you have the latest update.

At the risk of seeming rude, if you cannot figure out what a cargo ship is for...
That being said, use your manual you got with your purchase, the Supreme Wiki (link top of the page) and the search forum on these boards. A lot of good information to be had with some mild reading.

from most unit lists you can double click to get unit info. Also, there is a thread in the Military sub-forum about transporting units.

Read some AAR's. Should give you some info on how other players use the various units of the game.

Re: new to supreme ruler line of games
Something in particular that was improved in the latest update for the expansion, we now have more unit models for transport ships so you can visually tell them apart;
* Basic Cargo, smaller capacity, AE, AP (pic#14)
* Small Amphibious, LSUs (pic#434)
* Large Cargo AOEs, AORs (Pic#152)
* Landing Craft carrier, tarawa types (Pic#145)
** most ships using this pic are actually "carrier class".
* LHA, LSD and large LST types (Pic#435)
So usually you want an AOE or LSD type ship for transporting units. LSUs are good for small landings, usually can carry one infantry battalion. Some ships are only useful as tender ships (ammo and fuel stocks).
