Come and Get Me interaction with Combat Maneuvers

[Joey Cote]

Lets take a situation where Combatant A has Come and Get Me and has activated it. Combatant B uses (for example) trip combat maneuver (and has the improved trip feat).

Is the trip considered an attack for the purposes of triggering Come and Get Me?

If it is (and I think it would be), if the attack of opportunity Combatant A gets hits, is the damage caused by the attack subtracted from Combatant B's roll to trip Combatant A?

Yes. Anything involving an attack roll, including maneuvers, is an attack (and therefore triggers CaGM).

No. That only happens with the AoO provoked normally by a maneuver (but which isn't here due to Improved Trip), not with any AoO the defender happens to get.

Thanks, that seems a reasonable way to interpret the rules.
