Never-the-less, it would have been a guaranteed suicide for the wives if they were to attack. I mean had the Cullens and their allies decided to attack back, then highly likely that the wives would not have stood a chance. The Volturi wives probably weren't very pugnacious like the Cullens and their allies anyways, and had basic strength and not very pronounced skills.

I think that perhaps they were vengeful, they just weren't vengefully stupid. As if they were likely just biding their time with getting their revenge, rather than just outright attacking the Cullens and allies right then which would most definitely been pointless. Like say, waiting until after the battle were over (assuming they lived through it) and then plotting their revenge. Just my thoughts.
