Me and my friend are really new to playing 40k and thus do not fully understand the rules.

Is it possible for a terminator who is embarked in a land raider to...

Move 12 inches in the land raider
disembark and move 6 more inches
run 6 inches
and then assault any enemy within 6 inches?

Also is it possible for a termi to move 6, roll to run (possible 6 more inches) and then assault anything within 6 inches?

The Raider may move 12"
the Terminators may disembark
The Terminators cannot move anymore, because they disembarked from a moving vehicle.
Yes they may run
No you cannot assault after you have ran with the Terminators, as they do not have Fleet

As an extra - you CAN run then assault IF you take Shrike, as Shrike gives all units Fleet

Thanks guys.

Raider moves 12"
Termies disembark within 2"
Run 6"
Assault 6" (if Shrike has given them Fleet)

So you have a 26" possible assault range.

hmm

rulebook says "If the vehicle has already moved (including pivoting on the spot), the passengers may disembark, but not move any further."

Since we're talking Land Raiders- check the assault vehicle rule in the LR section of your codex.

sorry i dont play SM. My buddy does and but i dont have his codex with me.

They mean "move" as in "that movement phase" - so you cannot make your normal 6" move after having disembarked.

However you may still Run, and, if you have Fleet, you can then make an assault move.

Remember that Terminator base size is ... what, 1 1/2"? So that gives you an extra base width of distance, bringing the entire threat range up to 27.5". Close to 30, but not quite.
