I actually wouldn't bother, unless you end in a port or a swamp (where both naval and ground units can operate), you'll need to move the ships out of the land stack when you arrive before you can invade.

if you want to close escort make use of how the game actually runs the movement phase. Every unit spends 1 MP, then every unit spends another. At some stage some stacks have exhausted their movement and stop, but others can carry on expending 1 MP per phase. So basically 'faster' units don't move faster they can move further.

So if you arrange it so your escorts and your army reach the same naval region in the same movement phase, they will then carry on together till the army has run out of movement. Just make sure the fleet stops here too.

To unite armies n the same region you click on one army and then on the " merge" tab and then on the second tag relating to the other stack.

For a fleet it is the same but note if a fleet is in a harbour and the second fleet you are trying to merge with is in the coastal sea region outside the harbour one or the other needs to be moved to be in the same location .

For armies that aren't in the same region, you can give an intercept order when moving by right clicking on the target army rather than the ground. This will order them to merge as soon as they reach the same region.
