(Summary: external router machine has external address 82.77.83.33/27,
with routable internal network 81.196.166.97/29 and internal NAT
network 192.168.0.0/24.)

There's two problems here:
(1) You're telling the firewall to NAT both networks, where presumably
you want the 81.196.166.97/29 network to be directly routed. You
don't need special firewall rules for this, though you do need to
have IP forwarding enabled.
(2) You've told the machines on the 192.168.1.0/24 network that their
gateway machine is on a different network, so they don't know how
to reach it. You probably need to give the gateway machine an
address on the NAT network (like 192.168.1.1) and tell the NAT
machines to use that as their gateway.

...so install Debian on them. :-)
