Tail-spinning Tomb Blade Pilot

Hi,
Im fairly new to 7th edition, played a lot with older editions and just going over the rules a lot. One that i dont seem to understand is getting out of vehicles, can i only move 6" and get out?
Used to be you could move 12" with your landraider and then assault. Is that no longer the case?
A unit that begins its Movement phase embarked upon a vehicle can disembark either
before or after the vehicle has moved (including pivoting on the spot, etc) so long as the
vehicle has not moved more than 6".
Seems like a real big blanket rule for all transports or am i missing something?

Nope that's the way the rule is now, If you are going to Get in or get out of a vehicle the Vehicle cannot move more than 6" that turn Regardless of type.

Indeed. However, a couple Transports have specific rules that allow them to bypass it, namely the Necron Night Scythe and Marine Storm Raven.

Incorrect.
If the vehicle does not move before a unit embarks or disembarks, the vehicle may move as normal that movement phase
To op - note you now make a normal move to disembark, so can end up another 6" away.

Yeah, the 6" disembark zone means that you've actually only lost 2" (Vehicle moves 6", squad disembarks 6" vs Vehicle moves 12", squad disembarks 2").

2" plus the width of the base of the model. New requirement is fully within so the base size can't be used to gain additional distance.
