all but Kali VM's have no IP's

I have previously used an earlier version of Proxmox to build a pentest lab using vulnhub vm's. I've upgraded to 7.1 and installed a few VM's (which work in the console) but only my Kali VM gets a network IP address. Everything is pretty much Vanila with:

root@pve:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

iface enp1s0 inet manual

auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 192.168.0.70/24
gateway 192.168.0.1
bridge-ports enp1s0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0


Any help I can get to get the vulnhub VM's visible on my LAN would be much appreciated. Sadly networking is NOT my strongest IT discipline, but I am trying to improve my understanding.
 
Config looks fine and should work if you configured the guest OSs networking right.
 
So the guest VM's are pentest boxes, and therefore inaccessible (to modify network settings) until compromised. They all (are supposed) to have DHCP configured to obtain IP's from the DHCP server (Virgin Hub 4 router). As I said, with a previous version of Proxmox, these types of boxes have managed to get IP addresses. It is odd as the Kali VM has been assigned an IP address.
