I was reviewing this discipline because I was considering taking it.  I would make one change.  I would  have Mindlink also as a power so you can use the augment abilities and also spend power points to add people to the mindlink because as it stands their are no other ways to get the mindlink power and even if there was it would not make sense to for it to be somewhere else and not here.

Another options would allow the person to use mindlink for free for one person as described above but also to allow them to spend PP to augment and enhance like in the power description.  I think either is fine.

Displine:Communication   This discipline allows the psionic communicate with other mentally.

Speciality:Telepathy

Ability: Intelligence   

Prereq:N/A   

Concentration: While concentrating on this discipline, you can forge a Mindlink with any one willing target.

Missive (1): As a swift action, send a ten word message in range.   Mass Missive (3): As a move action, send a twenty-five word message to anyone in range.   Correspond (4): Hold mental conversation with a creature at a distance.



Here is the description of the power to see why it is important to have the ability to add PPs to augment and enhance it.


Level:   Telepath 1
Display:   Mental
Manifesting Time:   1 standard action
Range:   Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels); see text
Target:   You and one other willing creature within range that has an Intelligence score of 3 or higher
Duration:   10 min./level
Saving Throw:   None; see text
Power Resistance:   Yes (harmless)
Power Points:   1

You forge a telepathic bond with your target. You can communicate telepathically through the bond even if you do not share a common language. No special power or influence is established as a result of the bond. Once the bond is formed, it works over any distance (although not from one plane to another).

Augment
You can augment this power in one or both of the following ways.

If you spend 4 additional power points, you can attempt to create a telepathic bond with a creature that is not willing (Will save negates).
For every additional power point you spend, this power can affect an additional target. Any additional target cannot be more than 15 feet from another target of the power.

I put these in an Excel workbook if anyone wants it. Makes it easier to compare power blocks.
Has anyone been making updates to the Excel disciplines workbook?
