Upgrading to 7.5 will not affect this particular problem I think.

Still low on caffeine I spot two likely factors - your $localnet range overlaps
with one of the ranges in $martians (which I anyway would recommend converting
into a table), and your block referencing $martians comes after the pass rules
that would have let icmp through. With no previous matching quick, last match
applies.
