This is going to be interesting. Cards played:
Red Tape 0
Declare Emergency 5
Launch Scout 1
Critical Situation 5
Scientific Research 3
Calculations 3
By Your Command 1
Best of the Best 6
Tally: 18 - 6 = 12. Fail. However! The Red Tape kicks in, and cancels all cards worth 5 or 6 - of which there are three.
Revised tally: 8 - 0 = 8. Such Fail! Population and Morale both fall by 1! And the check isn't finished with you yet. This check is Reckless, so the By Your Command triggers. The raiders and heavy raider all activate.
Finally, the raiders activate again; and the jump track advances. That concludes Starbuck's turn. Baltar's cards are going out. President Baltar, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Yeah, I think you once said, "That could have gone better." That's how I feel right now. I was positive we had this in the bag given that every color but one was positive.

See, I was worried about that, and that's why I made one more color positive. Yikes. That was horrible! It was only 2 cards that really hurt us. Red Tape card did double damage. 2 cards could be Destiny rearing it's ugly head. But wow! That really hurts.
I'm trying to come up with something productive here folks, while working a long day. Welcome to ideas.
