Of course you must have transport ships in your fleet and you need to have enough capacity to transport the number of troops. (A 5 troop army will refuse to attempt to load onto a fleet with only 4 transport capacity). Move the fleet to sea in the coastal territory next to the army (you cannot load a fleet that is at anchor in a port). Move the army into the same coastal sea territory. They will board the fleet.
The Alexander was the largest of the convict transport ships, and it carried almost 200 male convicts.
