I've lived it and adrenaline junkies like it in some strange way-I suspect you like it too.
But you always need successes to point to. Make sure the higher ups prioritize which launches are the most important and make sure they are. Provide statuses to show how hosed everything is and your plan to fix it.
When/if the lower priorities fail you will still have succeeded where the business needed it most. Remember you got in this place partially because higher ups failed to pick the right people, motivate them and ensure it was all on track. That hasn't gone away-and also expect one or two saboteurs who are not happy you are there. That project status can help you praise or bang heads when needed.
