What's better? holding a coastal province's center and wait for the enemy to finish disembarking and attack or sending units to the edge facing the sea to defend while the enemy units are still disembarking?
I looked into the stats and most of the units shows no stats towards ships but I've seen enemies doing damage to my troops while they're disembarking/embarking, I'm not sure if that's because of the units defending or from a hidden artillery unit tho.

Try sending artillery or planes to bombard the ships if you can, otherwise, I would send units to the province immediately. If there is a large invasion that could affect the whole game, I might even build some fortifications with gold.

Yeah I always do that, just camping at the province where they're landing with artillery but I want to know if it's better to hold the center or at the edge where they disembark.

I donβt think that matters much...If you have artillery at the back, move troops to the front so you can continue to bombard while the fighting is going.

Send melee units to the LZ. The disembarking units are weak. If you send melee
units to attack the disembarking enemies, you will see an error message that
your troops cannot damage the enemy unit. But, this message is FALSE!
Except on CoN, where landing enemies get a free ride, they can even
gain the advantage of rapid disembarkment, if they land at your harbor!
