Griffins will be available on corp contract at the staging station, fitted with everything but the ECM modules. Then, ECM modules will be also be available in separate corp contracts. The [http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Griffin standard Uniwiki Griffin fit] advises a "rainbow" set of ECM modules, so that pilots can be prepared for any type of target. However, we will know the identity of our aggressors' ships from D-Scan or from being attacked, and so you should *not* use a rainbow fit. Instead, once you dock your mining vessel and switch to the Griffin, either fit all 4 ECM modules to match our opponent's ship type, or, if we have multiple aggressors, split your modules 2/2 to be able to target two opponents at once. | Griffins will be available on corp contract at the staging station, fitted with everything but the ECM modules.
