WAN on 12.34.56.78
LAN on 192.168.16.0/24
OPT1 on 18.25.125.17/29 (or any other IP from the range - I’ve gone with the 
first usable IP for simplicity)

Your LAN works as it does currently, NATing to 12.34.56.78.

You then have 3 choices:

1) give your servers public IPs and place them directly onto OPT1 (this doesn’t 
have to be a separate physical interface, no reason why it couldn’t be a tagged 
VLAN). They would then use 18.25.125.17 as their default gw.

2) dual home your servers so they have both a public IP and an RFC1918 IP.

3) you might be able to define virtual IPs for 18.25.125.18 .19 .20 .21 .22 on 
OPT1 - this will allow pfSense to handle ARP replies for those IPs. You may 
then be able to define a 1:1 rule as follows (for example):
Interface       External IP     Internal IP     Destination IP
OPT1    18.25.125.18    192.168.16.5    *

It’s important that the range 18.25.125.16/29 is defined on an interface on 
pfSense *somewhere*, even if - as I said above - it’s not assigned a physical 
NIC.

Kind regards,

Chris
