Transferring a lot of Characters from one game to the others. What is the best method?

Greetings everyone! I want to transfer a lot of characters from an ancient game to a new one. These includes mostly "monsters" and "npcs" with specific macros, tokens & avatars. What is the most efficient way to do it? Is there a way to do a "massive" import / export to and from the characters vault? Thanks in advance for your suggestions :)

There are several methods: (Any Subscription) Clone the game and use it as the start for the new game.  This is by far the fastest and easiest thing to do, but it only works when you are creating the new game. (Plus or Pro Subscription) Use the Character Vault to move characters from one game into your vault, then from your vault into the other game.  This is the most tedious method, but it's the only available to plus for moving characters between existing games. (Pro Subscription) Use the Transmogrifier to move characters (and almost anything else) from one game to another.

The options: Free Users: copy the game, then you will have a new game with all the content of the old one Plus users : use the Character Vault by repeating one step for all sheets, then do the next step for all. I.e, on the import page, import all the npcs & chars to the vault, then go to the main Vault page and start exporting them one by one to the new game. Pro users : it would be quicker to use the Transmogrifier Edit: Aaron rolled higher on initiative. Great minds think alike :D
This answers my questions. Thanks to both of you, and I wish you good gaming!
