Get your legal status and combat rating up. Not so much the legality, just the combat rating.
BTW, there are only five good missions from the Confeds, so why would you want more? You'd be better off looking for the Rebel Switch Sides Mission.
Oh, a question. What was it?
Oh yeah, not a question. I think it would be cool if if you died, the crew of the ship you had was subtracted from the crew you had killed, thus lowering your combat rating. ie if you die in a confed cruiser, you lose a LOT of combat rating points
