Short form: You can't.

Long form: Campaign editor doesn't allow non-block unit placement (also doesn't allow terrain-induced illegal unit placement). Therefore, you'd need a modded editor like scxe special or starforge. scxe special doesn't allow perfect stack (except for some cases like beacons), as they need to be at least a pixel apart in scxe special. Stack with starforge by clicking the unit property tab on a mineral field and typing in the number.

Conclusion: I hope you aren't making a money map out of this.

Yup. Unless you consider placing minerals tactical data :P.

As you said, you already posted a topic about this, so I'm going to close this one.

See http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=9292

I've also moved that thread to the Maps & Mods Depot.

I highly recommend using SCMDraft 2 for stacking, it's the best looking map editor I've used, it's got cool sounds, it lets you zoom in and out, and it's just generally cool. Go to http://scmdraft.stormcoast-fortress.net/ and register there, then you can click the download button to download the latest version.

Once you've got SCMDraft downloaded, just go to Options > Units > Allow Stack to enable stacking.

(Try deleting a unit with your sound on in SCMDraft and see what happens hehe...)
