Hi, 

You need arp entries when you nat to an address on an existing network
connected to one of your firewall's interfaces.
These entries will be used when another machine on the network tries to
talk with the nated address. It will send an arp request, and your
firewall will answer it.

If you only NAT to non-existing networks, you don't need arp. You just
need well-configured routes.
