I was just awarded the Pyrrhic Victory achievement, but I was not the last survivor on my team, I got killed around the middle of the match.

I do see that the achievement description says to "win a match with only one person on your team alive", it does not specifically say it has to be you. But if this is the case, this award seems a bit meaningless to me if it's to be awarded to all participants in a game that is won with only a single 'Mech left on your team - especially as the reward for this achievement is the title "Survivor".

So, I don't really know if this is a bug, or if it's working as intended?

Maybe they meant "Survivor" in the sense of the team? Seems like there must be a better word, though.

On an odd note, this "Pyrrhic Victory" is actually just a close victory -- there's no lasting loss. Pyrrhic ought to be the mechwarrior who expends Airstrike, Artillery, UAV, and Cool Shot, but receives less than 40k c-bills at a win.
